Day 54 - Agra to Goa

We have made it to Goa, Jon having recovered from his sudden onset of India-phobia, and we are loving the place. Thought you would like to see some shots of the Taj though so here you are...Agra wasn't all bad really although you may have been fooled by Jon's last blog!


So we are now at the beach and here' s the photo to prove it - yup, it's lovely here...sea, sand, sun (pretty scorchio actually but we are coping), beer (v cheap) and most excitingly of all WINE.... they actually make wine here so I have been able to enjoy a glass or two (I (this is Emma and not Jon talking in case you were getting worried) grew tired of Kingfisher long ago and have been tee-total all this time...).
So, Goa is great! We have been so lucky with our hotel here - it has a pool and hot water - and we are feeling thoroughly spoilt. The one (and only) problem (for Jon in particular) we have come across at our hotel are the flying things - bugs and mozzas seem to like the place and were trying to cozy up to us all night; we tried to barricade ourselves into our room, weighing down the curtains with all our Lonely Planets, but some still managed to get through... it is not such a great problem for me as I am not as Jon is a mozza-magnet so they usually leave me alone...tee hee hee!

We are here for another few hours before rickshawing to the station where we will catch the overnight to Mumbai (sadly, our last train journey in India) and this may be our last blog from India... so it's ta ra from India and thank you for reading!
