Kovalam sunset

I couldn't leave Kovalam without blipping a sunset, so here is tonight's. I'm off to Thiruvalla, a little north, the daughter of one of our friends is becoming engaged tomorrow so I'm hoping for some lovely colourful and happy images.
It is an arranged marriage, as is the custom here. As one of my friends put it... "In your country, Sally, people fall in love then marry. Here we marry, then love comes."
A nice philosophy when it works, as very many do.
