Relaxed!!!!!

Last week was probably one of best week I have had for ages!!! I made a trip down to Goa with my sister to meet some good friends. They are more like family to me:) The vacation was so perfectly timed that I came back thoroughly refreshed and rejuvenated.

Goa is beautiful in the rains...I know u can't go much to the beach or shop around. But after having a crazy hectic schedule here in Pune, the last thing I wanted to do in Goa was run around sight seeing. Was staying in Porvorim in a really neat bungalow. It was constructed many years back, so it kinda had an old feel to it. Loved sitting near the window and reading and watchin it rain outside. This trip definitely did good to my health. 

The highlight of my vacation were the kids. The family that i was stayin with had 4 kids, ranging from a 6yr old to a one yr old. So u can imagine the energy levels in that house:) I got so  involved in their schedules (be it swimming, or taekwondo, or even their sleep timings) that i forgot that I will be goin back soon:( The one yr old was the cutest...She loves to eat  and eat and eat .And well after all that eating guess wat babies loooove to do??? Poop.. I was tired changing her diapers...But it was a joy in itself. I think I was just so happy doin somethin totally different from my normal routine, I accepted all that came my way :)

I know it goes without sayin but the sea food in Goa is amazing. Being an avid fish lover, i was in paradise :) Love the prawns and sausages( you get wonderful pork sausages). Ate loads of chocolate and ice cream and I came back gaining some weight, which I don't mind coz that's what vacations are for!!!

Somethin that I have resolved to do after this trip, is to try and take a vacation regularly. Hopin that I can do it, coz I know it does good to my body and mind:)
