Today was good. It started with Max and I playing video games. Since Max was sick we got to play till lunch. Then I went to the Bombay store an bought souvineers. Mom also bought a giant bean bag chair for only 40 dollars but was 1,600 rupees. When I came home I watched three movie with Max the first was Robin Hood Men in Tights. The second was A Colts movie. The third was Indiana Jones Raiders of the Lost Ark.
This is a holy cow.
These are a batch of coconuts picked.
Today was decent. In the morning we went down to breakfast and I ate pure junk. After breakafst, I went jetskiing and even got to drive! After that I spent the rest of the morning in the beach bodysurfing, etc. I then went to th airport to go back to Mumbai:( We got to Mumbai in just over 2 hours total( 1 driving, one flying). When we got back to the house Max and I watched tv. Then Max fell sick and had stomachaches and I bet you can guess what he did to my bed. I stood up playing video games.
This is the beach I played on most of the time.
This is me in front of the Fort Aquada. Our hotel is built on this.
Today was totally rad! It started out with the breakfast buffet. I had the normal chocolate doughnut, bacon and quiche. I then played in the pool with Max. I played alligator, In alligator, you try to sneak up on the other person with only your nose and eyes out of water. I then body surfed in the Arabian Sea and played defend the castle( and lost again). In our "pool" the pool is actually a rock that captures water. We then went to rest.
When we came back to the beach we explored the rocks and found, as Max called them, the Crabby Colonies. I also shell dove in the poluted water. I finished the day watching WIPEOUT and Extreme Kiwi( our favorite player and got nickenamed).
Body surfing in the Arabian Sea.
Stray dog of the day.
Today was sweet! I woke up and 10 minutes later I went down to a breakfast buffet. I then played in the pool with Max. We played hide and seek with a little girl. I then went to the beach and played "defend the castle". In defend the castle you build walls ditches and moats to defend your castle from the waves. Then we went on a sight-seeing trip. We saw the actual big part of Fort Aguada, A churches, a rug store and a market.
This is the lighthouse at the main part of Fort Aguada. The Portuguese needed this fort and 4 others to keep out invaders after they invaded Goa.
This is the stray dog of the day. He looks cute doesn't he?
This is a former coffin Saint Frances Xavier. Saint Frances Xavier was a missionary. After his death his body was intact for three years! The skin is still on today!
Today was a great day. I woke up and hung around watching Animal planet for a while. I then went to the airport to go to Goa, which is just south of Bombay. It took about 2 hours get to our hotel the Fort Aguada. The Fort Aguada is a hotel where the hotel was built on a fort! It had a beach with a bunch of rocks. Then went to the beach soon after we checked in. On the part of the beach where there was rocks, we found a lot of crabs, sea slugs, sea cucumbers and barnacles.
This is a sacred cow. You could buy food for the cow sense they are sacred.
This is me sitting in the pool, It is really a big rock that captures water, but eventually goes away.
This is a rice plantation in Goa.
Today was a pretty good day. I first went to a nature walk. At the nature walk I saw butterflies, Banyan trees, plants, and a really fat monkey that hated me. When I took a picture of it, it opened its mouth and screeched at me. Creepy. After the walk I went the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahhalaya museum. I took lots of pictures. Unfortunately, the armor and arms section was 3/4 closed. Then I came home in 1 1/2 hours worth of traffic.
This is the REALLY fat monkey.
This is the stray dog of the day. I found it at the nature park hopefully having fun.
These are ancient swords.
This is a guy in full battle armor.
Today was a pretty good day. It started off with me taking a walk with mom. I took a picture of a temple that Parcis went to. I came home and then went straight to the zoo. At the zoo I saw hippos, lions, hyenas etc. It was very sad that the Hyenas and lions had SMALL homes:( I then went home.
We also went to the mall with our cousin Anu, except Max and I did not go shopping, we played shoot- em-up arcade games! Unfortunately we had to go home because people were protesting this Sha Rukh Kahn guy.
This is the stray dog of the day.
This a monkey at the Mumbai zoo. It was " talking" to another monkey.

This is Max and I standing in front of the Gateway of India. It said it was made in MCMXI.
That right there is a stray dog.
This is a truck that I do not know what is in it. On the back like most trucks it has the the letters PLEASE HORN.
I had a great day, but there is not much that I have done. I woke up at about 8:30 AM this morning, ( bedtime for most of you guys)and had 2 pieces of toast, half a papaya, 1 egg and another 2 pieces of toast.We then went on a wonderful walk, and I took many pictures. We saw a lot of homeless people and cars getting within 1 foot of each other. The only things I heard were car horns and foreign languages. I am getting used t the Indian smell that smells remotely of spices. I am going to see Avatar this afternoon.
This necklace is called welcome garland, and are used for welcoming. I really do not know why the hearts are there.
This picture is a picture of a rice shop. You ask for a certain rice, and the lady scoops it up for you. Unfortunately the dog is a stray and is treated badly. I think that the way people treat them is around animal cruelty someone should adopt some dogs.
The thing on the stick is meat. This is a butchers shop. Yes, this man is posing for me.
