3 Weeks Across Incredible India

Day 9 - 17. January 2009

The night on the train was very nice. In the morning there was included breakfast.

At about 10:30 I arrived in Madgaon. My plan was to go to Arambol Beach in the far North of Goa. To get there I first went on a motorcycle taxi to the bus station and then on 3 different buses to Arambol. One bus was completely overcrowded.
In Arambol Beach I rented a small hut very close to the beach.

Day 10 - 18. January 2009

After sleeping very long I did a "Do-Nothing-Day". So I did things like eating, swimming, hanging around, reading travel guidebook, internet, phone calls, ...
In the afternoon I did a long walk on the beach direction South until I went back by taxi.
And in the evening I checked out that Kingfisher Beer makes no headache

Day 11 - 19. January 2009

I went to Penaji and Old Goa on local busses. First I went via Mapusa to Penaji.

In the afternoon I went on to Old Goa. Old Goa is a given up city and only some churches are left. Thank's to the bus conducter who let me out at the right place.

On evening I went back to Arambol and spent only 56 Rupees for all the bus trips.

Day 12 - 20. January 2009

The day I did things like sleeping, swimming, eating, Ayurvedic massage, coffee drinking and a walk to the northern part of Arambol Beach.

In the evening I went with people from Switzerland and Australia to a beach party in a location called "German Bakery". We were sitting in the sand on the beach and this was very nice. On one side we had noise of the sea and on the other side music.

Day 13 - 21. January 2009

After sleeping long I went jogging on the beach. And after half time of the holiday I made a backup of my camera in an internet café.

In the afternoon I went on a motorcycle taxi to Anjuna Flea Market. This flea market is really nice. But it is exhausting because everybody wants to sell you everything and makes special price only for you.
After two hours I had seen everything and bought the things I wanted to buy. After buying stuff the vendors wanted to sell me much more "Friend, I have special price only for you and make minus today because you are my best friend." So I went to the vendor free part of Anjuna Beach later.

Day 14 - 22. January 2009

In the morning I enjoyed the last hours in Arambol Beach. I went jogging with the english guy from the hut opposite, took a last bath and a large breakfast on the beach.
At 11:30am I went by taxi to Goa Airport to check out if Kingfisher is flying as good as their beer tastes.
The beer brewery and the airline is owned by one company and on their aeroplanes is the same logo than on their beer bottles.
After waiting very long at the airport because I went there very early and the flight was delayed by about 1 hour I had a very good flight with Kingfisher Airlines to Delhi. Kingfisher Airlines has very good service.
