Why We are Still at the Blue Corner
This is a top pick! ... the puppies weren't old enough to eat solid food. I had an idea. I took a handful of the dry dog food we'd bought in Benaulim town for momma and soaked it in water. The puppies started gobbling it down. Then I gave them some Basmati rice. They ate most ...
The Creepshow Continues
This is a top pick! First it was the Swedes, Daniel and Sara who we'd met last year in the Philippines turning up in Mamallapuram. Then on the Andaman Islands we chanced upon Radoslav and Alzbeta, a couple from a tiny town in Slovakia, where Elenka'a mother was ...
Stepping Back In Time With the Fishermen
This is a top pick! ... trees beside our cabinas and simply pointed, as if to say 'Palm, corner, what's the difference?' Despite a smattering of tourists Benaulim remains what it's been for five-hundred years, a simple fishing village. You really get a feel for the past when ...
Dr. Elvis is My New King
This is a top pick! ... the Blue Corner. They suggested that I see Dr Edgar – all doctors in Goa seem to go by their first name – in Benaulim town. Dr Edgar seemed more concerned about a couple of cuts on the bottom of my foot than the fever; wounds that had occurred ...
Cabina Critters, Dr Ranjeeta and the Barber
This is a top pick! ... from the apron and said, “I don't suppose you could put any of this back on?” He smiled proudly and said, “Thank you.” I had nary a nic. Next time though, I will wait for one of Benaulim's many power outages before having a ...
The Young Indian and the Sea – A Fishy Tale
This is a top pick! ... waiter. I took a sip of the just delivered hot brew and looked out to the sea. In the two times that we've been to India neither of us have ever seen an Indian swim. Dolphins don't as a rule come very close to shore. And, although Biru has the English ...
Relaxing on the beach
This is a top pick! Goa After sweating it out in Hampi we headed to the coast for some relaxation by the beach. Goa is one of India's smallest states, controlled by the Portuguese for a long period, with a sweaping coastline and a variety of beachside locations to choose ...
Dentists, Waiters...and Sex Police?
This is a top pick! ... of beach in both directions. Except for the evenings, when restaurants blast computer generated musical horrors in hope of attracting lunatics. Benaulim is almost certainly the quietest of what we've seen. There's going to be some debate in the Blue ...
Moving up to Mumbai
This is a top pick! Days 31 - 32 - Benaulim They say you'll experience some truly awful journeys while travelling and I've heard some stories that make me gag! Normally they involve bus travel (but undeterred, as I write, I'm sat on a 'luxury' sleeper coach on the 14hr ...
Last days in Goa
This is a top pick! Days 29 - 30 - Benaulim For the first time since we left I'm pissing clear! I'd like to say it's because I'm realising the significant importance of rehydration but in reality it's because I've had copious amounts of Belo (Goan beer) to drink. We've ...
Goa - India
This is a top pick! Day 28 - Benaulim Goa gets a rough press in the likes of the Lonely Planet and the Rough Guide for being touristy etc. While I have to admit that today I saw my first pair of Union Jack swimming shorts (obviously accompanied by the mandatory ...
Should have skipped Cavelossim..
This is a top pick! ... down the road and then a tuk tuk ride to the beach, oh how we like when a plan comes together! Arrived in Benaulim, specifically - Sernabatim, away from the main beach for obvious reasons, should of come here and missed Cavelossim! Staying in a beach ...
What a way to Goa
We were a little nervous about our first Indian train adventure so we checked out Mumbai central station the day before just to see how the system worked. Here was the scene of the first shooting last November and the authorities had responded with some ...
Goan Goan Gone
Bikey (the hotel waiter) took a shine to Jelly (Gill). You're velly nice Jelly he kept saying and it was beginning to get on my nerves until true to his name he came up trumps and organised a nice Honda scooter at a bargain price to be delivered ...
Benaulim , is a bit odd
... suntanned crowd and find a bit of the beach that is less populated. Goa is full of fatties. Not sure why but we are finding Benaulim quite different from Candolim where we stayed last time we were here. There are a lot of old people here and not a lot ...
The attack of the killer crows
... close enough to a Tiger that one giant leap and he'd have been eating breakfast earlier than intended. At our accomodation in Benaulim we're (alledgedly) three hundred yards from a python infested paddyfield. We've gotten on and off camels that are more ...
the thunderdiwali and the decision to go
Wir konnten diwali( das lichterfest der hindus) mit allen anderen von der schule feiern. das war schoen. mit buntem sand, "malten"wir mandalas beim eingang und es gab grosses feuerwerk. (wobei die inder mehr wert auf die LAUTSRAERKE des kanllkoerpers ...
the incredible second week (and the first monkey!)
... .) es war sooo wunderbar. weil das meer so tief war, strandeten hunderte von seesternen an der küste zwischen benaulim und colva und vergruben sich im nassen sand, *seeastar *loveme!loovemeee!!*;) incredible! Für dienstags stand go-kart-racing auf ...

Almost home
35 degrees two weeks before Christmas is strange but we are coping! Next stop Delhi, but not until the 19th, for a few more sights before heading back on 22nd. Hope you all are enjoying the Christmas parties...see you soon!! ...
Benaulim Part II
... in which we found ourselves. We ended up buying two cards which declared to be, but which were certainly not, of Benaulim beach ("photo taken when beach quiet - in monsoon - use your imagination!" was Shiva's explanation which we both rather ...
Christmas Day in Benaulim
... walk back...! Back at the guest-house, we had a great natter on the balcony about our time here. It was a summing up of India really as we both came to terms with the fact that we were to leave shortly. It's been a fantastic time so far; ...
Last day in Benaulim.
... which wasn't nice, not sure a drunk Indian is that safe to be around. After a while we rode our bikes back down the beach to Benaulim, well i did , milo pushed hers. By the way the bikes were 50 Rupees each to hire for the day, about 70P each. So we are ...
Benaulim mit Holger
... nbsp; Benaulim, Goa, Indien Wie der Titel schon vermuten laesst, spielte ein gewisser Holger eine wesentliche Rolle waehrend meiner Benaulim-Zeit. Holger; einigen von euch vielleicht als Herr Matthews bekannt, anderen als mein Ex-Mathe-LK-Lehrer; war zum ...
Going from Goa with Go Air
... fast to fit in. Like a freshly wrapped slice of mozerella, I sweat my way up and down the beach. I was relieved when I arrived in Benaulim to find that it was the place I had been searching for all along - peaceful ( in certain ways) and unspoilt. It is ...
Happy Christmas, this is the beach calling.
We hope you are all having a wonderful run-up to Christmas, we've finally arrived in India and have hit the beach in Goa. It's everything we hoped for- white sand, clear blue skies all day long and dirt cheap. We've found ourselves a place just 5 ...

Gone to Goa
... . (3 hours just to get out of Mumbai traffic) Definitely worth the trip. (see ecstatic photos) We are now staying in Benaulim, in a small, near-the-beach hotel. The weather is beautifully warm, the water inviting, and the people very friendly to the ...
Full on beach day today.
... of really old people coming here. I hope we still like Candolim when we go there on Thursday, because we don’t really like Benaulim that much. The Palm Grove resort where we are staying is very nice though, but it is a good 20 mins yomp to the ...
