All in India
It's hard to believe that two neighborhoods so jam packed with people and buildings could be considered suburbs, but such is the case in Mumbai with Juhu Beach and Bandra.
We are by no means professional surfers, but the mind/body workout that is surfing has recently peaked our interest. Here are five places we recommend if you have the same inclination to fall on your face many times in the hope of achieving that brief oneness with the ocean.
Only in Goa will you dine at a nice French restaurant on the beach with stray dogs begging at the side of your table and naked babies running around. It's hard to tell where La Plage restaurant ends and the beach begins.
The air is different here. As soon as I stepped off the plane, the cool, humid air confronted me. With it, it carried the thick smell of bonfire from that night's trash disposal.
This morning we started our Indian holiday. Like India itself, today overwhelmed me with people, color, smells, beggars, traffic, and more people. I don't believe that one could look in any direction and not have at least one person in his or hers peripheral vision. In Old Delhi, near the Red Fort, people, vendors, bikers, motor bikers and cars cover every available centimeter of ground. And this on a Sunday, when the "normal" day-to-day market was closed. The used market operates on Sundays.
