Day two and three Cricket on the beach

Some Indian boy were playing cricket on the beach. The bat was broken in two . They handle was used for the stump and the remaining bit for the bat.we stood and watched but they stopped playing to come and talk to us, they love to ask you questions about where you are from. Franco tried to explain that his son had played cricket for Italy.
"Italy town or Italy country?" we'll , yes exactly, there was no answer to that.
They new Alex Stuart.
They asked if we were here for "Joyfulness"
"Joyfulness?" of course" holiday" , yes we are.

Last night we ate at a restaurant called Gunpowder . It was the best Indian food I have ever eaten. Kerelan. The winner was "sweet and sour pumpkin" just delicious. I have never known how to eat pumpkin, whether it is a savoury or a dessert. This was cooked with tamarind and toasted mustard seeds and fresh curry leaves. The entire meal 4 starters 4 mains and 4 deserts cost £26 with £6 for the wine which we took along ourselves. So far the food has been wonderful.

Today we leave here for the flight Goa to Bangalore and on to Mysore by car. Hmmm. That's a four hour car journey . At least two hours of which will be in the dark. That could be a good or a bad thing.
Yabyum has been the perfect place to start our trip. Elaine got into the holiday right away with one of Photis's Pinacoladas she was very funny. The next two mornings we were rather concerned about her , she kept falling asleep at the breakfast table. Turned out there was a reason for that she had mistaken her blood pressure pills for her sleeping pills!

Ok time to get into a bit of real tourism .
