Summing it all up.
Textual stuff about Goa

Martin T. to the right had pleasant and fascination trip to Goa, visiting his sponsored children in the period above.  This was Martin's second trip to Goa for 2009 and the sixth in total so far. Martin visited Goa during Mar12 to 26th, 2009, Apr 1 to 16th,  Nov 26 to Dec 11, 2007 and Dec 26th to Jan 9th, 2008, and Apr 6 to 20th 2007.

India has some 1100 mill people and have an area of 3,3 mill km2. Goa on the other hand has 1,4 mill inhabitants and the area is 3000 km2. Goa is the richest of the Indian provinces.

Above, you have a map that show where Goa is situated in India. The weather at Goa from BBC.
Compare this to the weather in Oslo, Norway.
Goa is situated on the West Coast of India. Goa used to be a Portuguese colony from 1510 till 1962 when the Indian Army invaded and annexed Goa.

The former Portuguese colony of Goa is one of the most relaxed places in India. In the seventies when all of India was full with European and American hippies, Goa was really packed with them. Now most of the hippies have left, but new travelers keep pouring in. More  textual stuff on Goa and you can have a look at this slideshow from the net.

Departure with train from Norway

  
Martin bought extra seating for his computer, but there were no instructions, how to use the Internet. You had to pay. Martin was cross.

Arrival at the main airport in Norway, Oslo-Gardemoen.
Since Martin arrived just after midnight, the departure hall was empty.

Martin fell asleep just after sitting down and barely noticed the stop-over in Copenhagen where we picked up some additional Danes. Here we are refueling the plane in Jerevan, Armenia.
The sun is setting over the skies on route over the Caucasian mountains South of the Caspian sea.  

The following day, Wednesday 28th, was the first full day in Goa and a orientation meeting.
