A week in Goa,following the weekend in Mumbai.

Goa is known for its beautiful beaches. I have already experienced Goa earlier. This time, I have gone to all other places.

It seems like I am getting to update every 4 days so I have alot to type in such a short amount of time. Anyway to get back into my trip, we left northern Bombay and headed for the southern Bombay where most of the touristy stuff is. We spent a full day just making our way down in the mad traffic t…

Rahul , Bjorn and Me decided to set off from Pune to visit my place in Goa. It was a fun filled weekend. Destinations we covered were Old Goa , Sarzora Lake , Fort Aguada , Calangute beach , Colva beach , Fatrade Beach and Panjim.

Goa is a funny place. It's obviously part of India, but it's been separate from the rest for so long it's developed in a slightly different way.

Only Mags and Fran have made it out of the hote…

7/9/07 Well this is it, the start of our last real leg of the sub-continent journey.  Since there really isn’t much to do on Willingdon Island, we hung out for a little R&R at the Hilton before going to our little local dive for a Thali lunch.  We grabbed a taxi to the airport which…

We left Bombay with a bang,  literally.  We were having a great morning run out of Bombay, we started at 6:00 AM to miss the morning traffic.  Just as we started to get into some open hiway we got sideswiped by a small truck.  Nothing major just a foot long crease down the side.…

After 3 stressful weeks in India, it was time to relax a bit.  We headed south.  Goa was our destination.  Most people use plane on such a great distance.  Well.. we had a budget and decided to go by train.  Indian trains are nothing like the trains in Norway.  That's …
