Goa

Tuesday, April 19th, 2005

Well we are now back from our holiday in Goa and we had a really great time. We stayed at the Colonia Santa Maria, or CSM as it’s know, which we found to be quite basic but in an excellent location. The people there were very friendly and always willing to help.

We went on a few trips. One to Old Goa, the former Portuguese capital before it had to be abandoned due to Cholera outbreaks. Another to Cola beach, South Goa where we stayed in Arabian style tents on an isolated beach. We also spent time riding and washing elephants, I also had an elephant shower which was nice.

A great time was had by all. I will be writing more on our holiday at a later date meanwhile if you visit my flickr account you will find some photographs. Enjoy!
