Refreshed and happy :)

Goa at this time of the year is actually beautiful provided you stay in the shade. Almost all plants and trees are flowering or laden with fruit. I didn't know that the fragrance of cashew flowers and fruits could be so intoxicating. Also the air is abuzz with varied insects and birds chirping away happily. The bird songs are so varied and melodious in the mornings, that I could just sit there forever carefree and light-headed.
The food tastes more delicious when you have woken up to so much beauty and fresh air.
I wish we could spend more time there - walking in the cool sand in the morning, dipping our toes in the sea or strolling through cashew and mango orchards listening in on the birds gossiping amongst each other.

Heyyy.. you are on a vacation too ... how lovely :) I always feel that the vacation in Goa was too short, regardless of the number of days spent there :)

Well, I'm back after spending just three days in Goa. It really was a really short trip. Yours seems like a long relaxed vacation. Enjoy :)
