Easter Weekend Taj Holiday Village, Goa

Family desperate in need of a holiday? Off to Goa. This was different though, Esaak's first holiday to a resort, some anxiety and a lot of excitement.. about his food, will he like the beach or the pool etc. Finally we found the only thing in the world he's scared of - the pool! Sacred visits to Britto's and we were glad to see at least that much of Goa is still intact. Ever seen Goa with wine shops shuttered down? We did, thanks to the elections.

Trip to The Coffee Basin

4 days of Barbecues & Steaks, 4 wheel drives, the heritage temple, elephants and fishes at Shringeri temple.. a speed drive through some amazing roads, first hand experience of coffee & pepper plantations, the very best view from Yelumudalu.. photos are here, but the location is sworn to secrecy and good company.
