Vacation

This time our Goa experience was different although we stayed near the same beach we go to every year - Baga. We stayed at a resort which was supposed to be 4 star but didn't really match up to those standards. We didn't mind too much because most of our days were spent outside. As always we hired a scooter and drove around, but discovered new places this time.
The best part was that we discovered the Baga riverside and a quaint little restaurant called Le Poisson Rouge run by a Frenchman. We also visited Taj village which had a coffee shop overlooking the sea... very pleasant.
Then we went to Bangalore for two days... the best two days in a long time. Bangalore has changed so much... although I can't say it's for the best. Too much crowd and noise. But, we still enjoyed walking around early in the morning when there was a nip in the air. We went to some of our old haunts and also explored new ones. I enjoyed the Metro ride.... when will Mumbai ever get one???
Two days didn't seem like a lot but we filled in as much as we could and met up with quite a few old friends. Then back to Mumbai it was ... thankfully not as hot as we had left it a couple of weeks ago.
