We carried our bikes onto the ferry at the Gateway to India, and sailed south for an hour, disembarking onto a relatively quiet coastal road.
This was a very different environment than previous days: hot & humid, with lots of palm trees. The road bumps up and down, climbing over ridges and crossing rivers.
I bathed my feet in the warm Arabian Sea for the first time.
It was a short ride, so we had time for an afternoon excursion to the island fort of Janjera. We were delighted to discover that the boat transfer to the island was by lanteen rigged wheries, much like a feluca. The crew did an expert job of managing the landings.
