Kerala 2015

This is a record of a 10-day visit to just one part of India by us two Australian oldies, newly retired. Kerala, I had
learned, was the Indian state with the highest literacy rate, the longest life expectancy, the lowest infant mortality,
and the only place in the world where a communist government had come to power following democratic elections.
