Goa, India

Written by on Friday, May 15, 1970

A really hot day today gets almost unbearable at times the sand gets so hot you cant stand on it. The squealing of a pig disturbs the day as its strung up, the other pigs fighting to release it, then its dumped backward on to the carrier of a bike and he rode off with the pig still squealing furiously, to end up as somebody’s dinner. In the toilet at the back of Antonio’s ( the café) you do the business and it travels down a shoot and a big fat pig waiting for it at the other end. Big struggle at night to pinch coconuts shinned up and cut down the protecting thorns and then up to the top, too exhausted to get the nuts skinned my ankles, splinters, scratches, no coconuts .
