As we watched the last of the the sun dip down beneath the horizon of the sea our waitress brought a candle to our table on the beach. The last of the sun worshippers were packing their towels. The Indian children were out in full force finishing their impromptu games of soccer and cricket. It's the perfect time of day. The sand was still warm beneath our bare feet and we were ready for a nice beach dinner.
Our dinner arrived and Sue immediately regretted not requesting the head of the fish be removed prior to cooking. She enjoyed it even with the big guy staring back at her.
The wind off the sea was starting to blow hard....the tide was coming in. We walked back along the sand for about 1 kilometer until we found the path that would lead us back to the hotel.
I once again changed stores to purchase suntan lotion. I opted for SPF 60 of a different brand again. No luck. It is also counterfeit. I have resolved myself to the fact that I have to plan my walking based on the time of day and if there are shadows to walk in.
We are starting to pack our gear as we will be leaving tomorrow morning. Our flights take us from Goa to Bangalore and then on to Kerala. I have emailed ahead and we are expecting a driver to meet us at the airport.
I have included a short video below of the hotel that we have stayed at here in Goa. While we will be sad to leave, I have to find real suntan lotion. I am also open to suggestions for the best way to relieve sunburn.

Don't worry about the sunburn...when it turns to Melanoma it'll become the Doctors problem.

ReplyDeleteFind something green and roll around in it.
ReplyDeleteSince red and green are contrasting colors, it should neutralize the ill effects of your burns.
