Chillin' in Goa.

---

So here we are, the trip through India is half over and we want to unwind. Where to go?....GOA. The land of blissed out hippies and sunworshippers. You can understand why. With the beautiful beaches and cheap hotels, they come in droves and stay for months.

We started our Goa adventure in Anjuna where we met up with one of the girls from our GAP tour, Ayse. We went to the Wednesday bazaar and had a blast walking up and down the colourful stalls, there were hundreds of them. The people, smells and colours made this a truely memorable experience.

After spending a couple of days in Anjuna, we took a taxi up the coast to Arambol. This place has a spectacular beach. Long, clean and lined with beach shacks and restaurants. The waves aren't that high and neither are the prices.

While we were there I did have a bit of an incident, I fell asleep in the sun and got a bit burnt. Lesley on the other hand was well protected with UV 60 and an umbrella.

Our time is almost up in Goa, and we're off to Delhi.

See you all later.

We moved from one great beach to an even better one.

This town went to the dogs.
These stray dogs were gentle and playful and loved the beach.

Amazing!
You are making the travel bug bite me very hard! The trip just seems to get better and better. Can't wait to hear the detailed stories when you are back. Try to remember them all! (Are you keeping a journal?) I hope it keeps getting better. -Kat
