Going around Goa





Friday we headed out on our bike and toured a bit around Goa, checking out some beaches and old forts. The weather is balmy here, and Saturday it poured for 24 hours straight, keeping us at the Siolim house watching movies and playing video games for most of the day. At night we ate by candle light as the power had gone completely out by that time....very romantic;-) The rain also encouraged a few small frogs to visit us in our room. Will felt they made the place a bit crowded and promptly escorted them back to the great outdoors.
Yesterday we continued our tour around Goa, stopping when it rained at little cafes to pass the time playing card games. We headed into a major town close by called Panjim witch only made me more glad that we had chosen the lest developed village of Siolim to stay in, as the bigger touristy places offered only more crowded and dirty beaches.
Today we head out on the bike again to go explore northern Goa.

Denny says "cool beans" about the bike - very much like an old Indian he had in late 60s.
