17 January

Well we’ve talked the talk it’s time to take a ride on the wild side, we hired an Electra Silver Bullet complete with its thumpa exhaust and legendary rugged reliability, yes this is the most fun way to travel in tropical India making your own cool breeze.  We took the back roads through the hills to Cabo de Rama with a lunch stop at the relatively undeveloped Agonda Beach.

The only unexpected hazard of the day was a giant monkey that leapt out in front of us trying to cross the road, he missed us but he wasn’t wearing a crash helmet and bounded headlong into an oncoming vehicle, unfortunately the monkey gets it.  Hanuman the monkey god must have been taking the day off.

The cost of the day’s excursion worked out to be half that of the entrance fee to the Taj Mahal.  As for simple pleasures, this has to be Paul’s number one India experience to date.
