The final countdown...

...has began. Unfortunately :(

One more day of Goa beaches, train adventure to Mumbay and back to cold, cold winter.

I'd just freeze these moments and never let them finish. It's a pretty good life - laying on the beach, refreshing in a perfect water (though not as perfect as in Croatia:)... and if this doesn't help with fresh juices, beers or mohitos.

Again we were lucky and got the nicest bamboo hut on the whole beach. We spoke to the hotel manager and he said that Mumbay attacks caused a great damage to the tourism - 60% less tourists. you can see that restaurants, bars, hotels aren't really full. It's fine with me but I don't think owners would agree. some won't even survive the crises. Place we are staying in is a quite new one, very nice and I keep my fingers crossed they'll make it.

Not only Mumbay attacks, law is not very favorable with a party scene. Bars should turn down music already at 10 pm. It was funny yesterday, a band had to stop at 10 pm but CD music kept on and on and on... (??????)

A funny place, Goa. You name it you have it. Holly cows marching up and down the beach. "Look at my jewelry, madam. Just look." "Want a massage, madam? Very good massage. You look tired. Massage good for you." Today even an ear cleaner appeared. Loads of white meat watchers too. and as Lonely Planet says, this is THE place for gracefully aging hippies. It seems that they have never left Goa.

The first day we came to Anjuna I thought my head was gonna explode. Very loud techno/house music everywhere. I'm ashamed to admit but yesterday I was so happy to hear Back Street Boys. Yes, Desperation was my middle name. In the evening there was a rock concert. Yes, ROCK concert. And today life is absolutely fabulous again. Bossa nova, Bob Marley... Thaaaaaank yoooooou!!!!!

Even if I want to complain I cant too much. Except for some minor digestion abnormalities but I'll spare you with details. And I really miss good old European food. So don't you dare to mention an Indian restaurant for quite a while. Seriously!

So, darlings, I'm off to the beach to accumulate some more heat.

Namaste.
