Day 10 - The dreaded boring day arrives!

Yep, today's  the 5am start with the 6pm finish for a what should have been 1 hour flight! However our time at the airport went much better than we expected as M had used the free internet over the past 2 days to download a number of programmes that we enjoy, just hope we didn't blow the download limit at the hotels! Between eating, wandering, reading & watching TV shows on our laptop the time was quite painless.

We arrived at our Goan resort about 6pm with a nice spacious room, about time after tripping over each other & luggage for the last week. Nice to be able to unpack & setlle in for 6 nights, the only downside being our room is right next to the resturant/bar - read that to mean constant loud 70/80's music.

After checking in went for a walk to find somewhere to eat - and this is where we got our first glimpse of what this part of Goa is like - old English people, and restaurants serving beef wellington and chip buttes alongside the chicken vindaloo ... we wondered to ourselves, what does this all mean, this isn't what we were expecting? I guess we'll find out tomorrow!
