Today we found ourselves searching the hardware shops of Mapusa for tarpaulins and string which signifies the end of our stay in Goa. We are packing things down in the appartment since there will be no-one here until after the monsoon.
Goa is always partying this time of year. Arambol feels like the centre of the live music scene here and we found an open mic night at the Loeki Bar with musicians both bizarre and beautiful. Lots of the songs were improvised and the audience's enjoyment made it even more special. The party moved onto the beach where everybody sang and played instruments together. Later on, a bottle of cashew feni was unleashed onto the crowd.
We've had lots of fun riding on the back of motorbike taxis, its thrilling to fly through the Goan countryside past whitewashed Portuguese churches, palm-fringed beaches, forested hills and small market villages.
It's Feb. 26th today, so happy birthday Mum! We wish we could be there or you here, but soon you will be! Love you lots, Bethan, Elen & Rhiannon xxx
