Goa - our last destination on our Indian adventure! We flew from Mumbai and we stayed in the town of Calungute and it was a lot more low key than I imagined it to be. It was certainly very tropical and warm and I instantly felt like I was on a vacation within a vacation - everyone else around us was on holiday, too!
It wasn't until very recently (the 1960's) that India gained their independence of Goa from Portugal. There is still a large Christian population and we even heard some Christmas music being played at the hotel - the first sign of the holidays! It has been strange to be away from home when the holiday season is in full swing!
We spent our last days shopping in the markets and enjoying delicious meals on the beach. It truly was the best ending to our adventure!
