Beaching it in Goa

It's been a relaxing week hanging out on the beach in Goa with close friends Tony, Alisha and Fran Dias, who flew in from Rhode Island to meet us. Most of the time week we simply hung out, swam, ate, caught up on news from home, and shared some of our trip adventures to date.

One day we took a boat trip-slash-picnic-slash-introduction to tourism for Indians (i.e. large numbers, small spaces, and lots of trash everywhere). We had a great time in spite of it all and shared the day on a boat with a group of Indians, all male, out to drink the tour operator dry - lots of laughs all around.

Tomorrow we fly to Pushkar in Rajasthan for their annual camel festival where 50,000 camels will arrive from all over north India. It should be interesting.
Cheers, Rob
