After fixing a blown exhaust gasket we left Baga beach for Panaji, crossing the river by ferry boat. Called at the post office but nothing there left a forwarding address Madras post restante. Ate a meal and decide to head for Bangalore about 1pm. Good climb on twisting winding road out of Goa climbed to 2000 feet then on to the open road. Gangs of monkeys playing by the roadside, in among the trees were big termite hills and lots of little towers pointing up. Its been nothing like I expected the land here is very fertile with trees everywhere, a cool breeze blowing and a very pleasant day all round, only sparsely populated too.
