The Final Leg - Goa

We (I) had great hassle with arranging travel from Varanasi to Goa. Eventually we got tickets on to fly to Mumbai and then on to Goa.

It is December 12 and we finally are on our last leg of our India journey and have made our way to Calangate, Goa via Delhi from Varanasi. Here we are experiencing a more laid back environment with much lowered pollution levels. I feel much better.
Goa was a Portuguese Colony and some of the Colonial influences are still evident. There is a building boom here like in many places of the world.

Calangate is a typical beach tourism town. We have very good accommodation and we are a couple of blocks from many kilometers of beach. It is fairly busy but not crowded and finally is a place I can do a bit of running. Ah relax.
