Beef on the menu

This cow was just wandering around inside the restaurant we were eating in. Cows are sacred to Indians so left to roam free!

Around 50 turtles hatched in total.

Hello!
Hello Mr. Robinson! I'm an Indian, and I've lived all my life in west bengal. Your blog is truly nice! Basically a bit emotional too :-) I went to Goa in 2004 and stayed 2 weeks there. Well, I really enjoyed goa. At the end of your blog it seems you're missing goa very much. Have you seen Andaman? One of the most beautiful island in India(arguably in the world)! Do you have any plan to come back to Goa in the future?
