Right then everyone,
hopefully people are still keeping an eye on what were up to. Its been a while since the last blog, been trying to find somewhere where I can upload photo's at the same time (really been struggling with that recently). Unfortunately, we have no pictures from the past few days anyway because something seems to have gone a little bit haywire in my camera. Hopefully its just a case of getting a new battery but we need a big enough town to get them.
Palolem is beautiful, and I do have a few pictures of it. Its still about two weeks before they're official holiday season starts here so its relatively quiet on the beaches, etc. We ended up spending 5 days in Palolem, which is a lot more than we expected to but we were having a really good time with the guys we met (hello and happy travels to Andy, Kim, Josh and Kerrie) It was a bit odd seeing them go, we've actually had more time as a group with them than we have with just the two of us. We went for a little boat trip up the river at the end of palolem beach and we swam to the island there aswell, you'll see it in the pictures when I finally get them up. We've been eating out, generally with the others and its been seafood all the way really, its hard to not eat seafood when your this close to the sea. All the restraunts have fresh shark, prawns, tigerprawns, calamari, tuna, the list goes on and we've been slowly working our way through it.
Now were in Patnem (only about 3Km down the coast) and its back to being just the two of us and it is quite a nice feeling to be back on the road again after quite a long stay in one place. Today is Tuesday 13th and tomorrow morning at 10 we have to be out of the hostel so the plan for this evening is some food and then a quiet evening in with the maps and travel guides to try and formulate some kind of a plan for the next few days.
Hopefully when Simon gets online in a bit he might have more luck uploading pictures.
We'll try not to leave it so long before we post again. 2 weeks down, 4 more to go in India!!
