To the left, a local crow looking around.
To the left, Sãn João Batista church. |
|
|
The whole church. On the way to
pick up some more trip participants, these fancy tree came to mind. |
|
|
Our boats lined up. Divided in two groups. One
for Norwegians and Swedes and the other one for Danes. This for the language
differences. Tree boat outside Coco beach, a place Martin
used to visit. |
|
|
A small tourist boat. Fancy
villa build by a famous diamond smuggler. |
|
|
The jail where the diamond smuggler should have
his residency. The end of the prison. |
|
|
Martin's group on the boat. Picture taken by
Jenny. Remains of an old Portuguese fort at the tip of the
penninsula. |
|
|
Lovely Jenny. Our Danish friend
in another boat. |
|
|
Big, rusty, grounded bulk carrier. Went ashore
in 2002 and nobody knows what to do with it. Big it is. Has
become a tourist attraction of sorts. |
|
|
Local fisherman. Actually, according to Jenny,
fishing is the biggest income earner in Goa, then iron ore and as a distant
third, the tourist trade. On to the Hippie market, only open
on Wedensdays. |
|
|
Closer look at the market.
Wading ashore. |
|
|
On to the market. Old walls came
tumbling down in the past. |
|
|
Green stone.
Ravie and Jackye. A shack
owner on the market. |
|
|
Colorful clothes in the market.
The sales ladies start very young. |
|
|
Another assistant to his dad in one of the
shacks. This one has just gone out on school holiday.
Smoking kills. |
|
|
Paul and Lesley of
Vanila Guest House. It comes highly
recommended. You can book at
www.hostelworld.com. A local TV crew was recording and
interview at the bar where Paul and Lesley sat. |
|
|
Some lone parasols on the beach.
Amalie really liked this pair of tongs on the man to the rate. Fancy? |
|
|
Jenny the tour guide is calling in the troops
for a trip to the lunch place. Off we all walk. |
|
|
Amalie, cute girl from Oslo.
Amalie and her Mom Maiken
together. Both had very sharp tongues. |
|
|
Nice outhouse under the stars.
Kurt and Bitten, a lovely Danish
couple. |
|
|
The Indians like bright colors. This one is
yellow. 3.5 billion years old rock boulder. |
|
|
Jenny the cute tourguide with the nicely
proportional body. Don't be fat, Jenny :-) Martin having a
beer while waiting for his hired cab. |
|
|
The scourge of modern society in Goa as over the
rest of the world. Plastic bags. If they are not burned, they take some 50
years to disintegrate in the wild. |
