Beach, Beach and More Beach
27.03.2008
I didn't bother to go to Goa as I was told there are Beaches in Kerela. So for the next three days I did what all tourists do: go to the beach.
First, I visit Veli tourist village which is like a park with a very strange statue. There a lakeside restaurant that serves food, so I had lunch as one of only two tables occupied - not normally a good sign for a restaurant. The food was fine, if a little hot and spicey. As I walked through the park I saw a hill which seemed to lead up to a sand pit. This turned out to be a huge sandy beach and the ocean - a little bit of a surprise ! After spending another half an hour or so there, I'm taken by my driver to another beach and then to the main tourist beach, Kovalum.
Kovalum beach has cafe's, grey sand, the ocean and tourists.

Trust you to be looking at the statue with the big pair of ....feet! Sounds like you're having a great time/keeping pretty busy seeing all the sights. One month gone - 5 to go! Keep busy and keep learning about life as you travel around. You'll come back as a fully converted Christian at this rate! I guess you'll soon be flying off to Thailand. Don't forget to ride an elephant. Hang on tight, its a long way down. Stu.
