Anders returns to Sweden in a few days. We have come to Trivandrum to say goodbye. We have eaten at Lantern Grove, a restaurant I had never heard of but which Anders and Leo praised highly.

Their friend and neighbour Mohan joined us and we had a fine, nonalcoholic time. I ordered a Dirty Pink Lady for my drink, which I might describe as a mutant strawberry milkshake. The others ordered various iced teas.

Now we drive through Trivandrum in the evening darkness and every no and then, when we stop because the traffic has ground to a standstill, I open the window and take a picture.

I took this one at a junction.
