the dolphin and the 150 km long beach :D

alibag
We were out there only for 30 hours, but it felt like much more :)
i have now covered all of the beaches in that circuit :D [well, akshi beach is still left]. We left at dawn, and went to Nagaon beach first, and had breakfast in the village shack before moving to the Murud area. Skipped kashid, murud and janjira, went to the very end of the region, and i had a blissful afternoon nap in the white sand of the small nameless beach near 'Aagardanda'
Spent the evening playing football, cricket, and generally fooling around [read sandcastles and samundar-bathing] in Kashid beach :D
Oh, and the fish thali in patel lunch home rocks :))



As night fell, we drove on back to Nagaon and Alibag, and i love roadtrips :)
I so wanted to grab the steering and drive, but alas! Fine, i will work out a roadtrip soon for sure! We had a great veggie meal in Alibag, and then it was back to the beaches with lotsa beer and tonnes of chips :D
Learnt how to make bonfires out of coconuts, slept on this beach too, woke up in time to see the moon set over the sea, and it beats any of the sunsets i have ever seen! It is so - magical!



Having fooled on the beach all night, we packed up our camp at dawn, and were back in bbay by 9:30! BTW the bbay goa highway, with all its traffic, was more exciting than today's Spanish Grand Prix! I am gonna drive out on that road someday.
