So close, but yet so far


In the middle there is Bogmallo Beach in Goa, where we spent a few days a week ago. Or a month ago, who knows? The days are so packed at work that it feels like the mini vacation happened in a previous lifetime.

It wouldn't be India if the holiday happened without incident. Our original destination was the Zuri further south, but on the morning of our departure we suddenly had no reservation anymore. Now I'm told this happens quite often in India when the later comers pay more and on a long weekend the hotels in Goa were fully booked.

Note to self: from now on insist to get hotel confirmation id from the travel agency and double-check it's valid with the hotel after reservation. I am still looking for any example of a working and trustworthy service in India - so far no luck...
