Days 11, 12 & 13 – Goa

We were a little nervous on the way to our Goan hotel as no one seemed to have heard of it, but when we arrived we were pleasantly surprised by a beautiful pool and big room with a king sized bed, a bathtub, a TV, AC… you get the picture. We were stoked to have such luxury after nights sleeping on trains, in the greasy sheet motel and in our “fancy” digs at IICP. We didn’t do much in Goa however. We went to the beach and sat around, went back to the pool and sat around, sat in the pool, sat in our air conditioned executive suite, ate some fries, ate a crab dinner, took long baths and then did it all over again the next day. We did however meet a couple of charming ladies from the UK who enlightened us with statements like “I don’t believe in helping people”, “we’re not racist, we just don’t really like Muslims”, and “blind people don’t live in the real world you know”. Well, they were nice people really, they just made some eyebrow raising comments is all.
