Sun City Resort Goa

Well it's been a month since I arrived back in lovely India, and the sun is finely shining again. They keep saying it&#8217;s the last of the rain, then a week later it comes back. I actually don&#8217;t mind, it&#8217;s a nice break from the hot, humid days where you have 3 showers a day to keep cool. <br><br>So far I have just been hanging out and reading lots (on book # 5) the toss of a lemon. I&#8217;m staying in calengute, which is very ...

... connecting with everyone around you who is listening to the same music. The club was located on a point right on the beach surrounded by boulders overlooking the ocean, quite a setting. We found an amazing Italian restaurant, easily the best one that I have ever been to in Asia. Linda and Ana said it was on par with some Italian joints in New Jersey, Linda being from Nutley(home ...

... a restortation project but it's a painfully slow process considering the combination of delicate structures (some were constructed in the 1500's) and humidity mean that, discounting monsoon seasons and other weather factors, there is only 50 days in a year when restortation can take place. So all in all my feelings towards Goa go like this -That man has taken far to much acid. Deliciousness in seafood culinary feats. Question. Is being a hippy truely an ...

... got yourself a Goan treat. Or not. An Indian Costa Brava sprung to mind. However, it had it's highlights, and we ended up using it as a base from which to explore other, more pleasant areas. Renting a moped in Goa is cheaper than taxis, and so we braved it and adventured around Goa on our trusted little Honda. The flea market at near by Anjuna was definitely a highlight. How I wished I had more bag space! Me and Layla had decided to get each others Christmas ...

... were also spotted fixing potholes on Malabar hill. I suspect municipal jobs like these are not handed out to regular companies but to individuals (who subsequently take the whole family along) as part as an unemployment scheme. If you want to experience this stretch of India just as I described it you better hurry. The rate of change (for better or worse) is large considering India's annual 10% growth and taken together with buoyant politics information gets outmoded pretty quickly. have fun!

... hit the beach. This rush was unlike the rush of fast life of Mumbai. Here, we rushed to not miss a single moment. We hired a bike and left for the beach. It was just 3 minute ride from our cottage. The sun was at its peak. The white sand sparkled with thousands of footprints on it. Those were crabs´ footprints. Ahead lay the endless water. The sun served its last working hours. We went to the shack nearby and sat lazily listening to the roaring waves ...

... drew some attention and laughter from locals). Each day, while hiding under the shade of a big leafy tree, we ate fresh fruit. Once we even made a papaya fruit bowl with pineapple, bananas and curd (from a cafe). A delicious and filling lunch for a total of $2.16 for two people - bargain! Of course, if you bought your fruit at the market, it would be much cheaper than this. Oh, the premium you pay for beach towel service! We are taking turns to read The Lovely Bones and The ...

... we went to was called Baga and was dotted with bars and restaurants, but as the season is coming to an end everywhere was fairly empty. Which made it much nicer on the beach however. We ended our day in Panjum and the area with an argument with a taxi driver, who said a price before we got in and then added 100 rupees to it when we got out- when we refused to pay the extra he said he would rather not be paid anything. we thought this was ...

... fancy pants restaurant and is apparently only .6 miles from a 20 some kilometre beach (to be verified first thing tomorrow am) It sure is great - big thanks to BD - thanks for setting us up!!! Seriously, this is an open invite :-) We have been waited on hand and foot since arriving (3 separate teams of welcomers came to our unit to greet us) and we had a great ...
