Goa












Goa...somewhere i came 3 years ago, specifically Anjuna, a very hippy/backpackery 'village'...  unfortunately however... we went in monsoon season...not the brightest  move on my part.  Goa is about 2 hours flight on the south west coast of india, but a million miles away from delhi, its a very lush, green, clay floored jungle region.
Our first night was spent in a lovely dirt floored kebab restaurant, once the rains had abated.  the following day we were lucky enough to get a dry warm day, warm enough for a walk along the beach, a little bartering and a scooter ride to nearby Baga, which turned out to be a much more lively little town.  a scooter ride i always think is the best way to see a place like this, and i was as proud as punch when jenn took a turn on the proverbial wheel.  the downside however is the continual harassment of people trying to sell you things.  our final night we headed back to baga to witness and partake in some bad dancing. a quick but lovely weekend get away, and im sure we'll return to goa...maybe not during monsoon season however.
