TWENTY SIX RAIN GO AWAY!

Well I believed the talk about no rain in March, but I have not been lucky.
Friday night, it poured down while it was too wet to walk out for a meal, so people sat in the nearest bar or, in our case, the Guest JHouse eating hut, which dripped a bit.
Yesterday Saturday, we went to Agonda beach up the coast about 7 miles, it is very wild there, with a few cafes, some huts to rent, and a couple of shacks on the edge of the sand. No palm trees, but a beautiful horseshoe bay, but the waves quite big so I did not swim for long.
Lucily, as it started to rain again at 2 pm Nasesh arrived with his rickshaw and by the time we were back in Outrem (end of Palolem beach) rain was heavy. It then poured, in tropical frenzy, for most of the afternoon and evening, so not much fun to be had on the beach for anybody!
Late afternoon it was stopped enough for a walk to the main drag, where all the hippy shops are, and cafes selling probiotic yogurt, meuslei, wholemeal bread, tattoos, kaftans and othr nicknacks. Not my kind of place, really.
