On the move - I relocate to South Goa

Woke up Sunday morning after 'crashing' at Veera/Hanna/Lisa's place overnight.


Veera and I wandered over to The Guru beach bar and had pancakes for breakfast.

After breakfast Veera grabbed a Tuck-Tuck over to Arambol beach to join the others, and I jumped in a Tuck-Tuck back to the Big Brother house to pack my things ready for leaving.



More to follow....

My Tuck-Tuck driver drove me a crazy way back to Assonora. It took almost twice as long as the public bus. Good thing I fixed the price before I got in.

I had lunch at the house and met two new girls from Norway. I think Norway must be exporting women at the moment, there are sooo many staying at the house.

I hung around the house until 3:30pm, then one of our taxi drivers picked me up and took me to Thivin railway station.

Well, I waited, and waited.... and waited for the 4:50pm train from Thivin to Margao in South Goa. Indian trains can be terribly unpredictable, and not very reliable. The little train station was full of passengers, mostly waiting to go to Mumbai, the opposite direction to myself.



Eventually, I gave up waiting for the train and walked outside the station and grabbed a taxi to go to Colva Beach, South Goa, where I was staying for the next two nights before leaving Goa.

I got to Colva Beach just as the sun was going down. My new home, The Stain Glass Cottage, was lovely and the staff very friendly. It was the perfect place to unwind and relax for the last two days of my holiday.

Chris.
