Its been 3 years since me & 2 of my friends planned a trip to goa but it got cancelled because one of my friends mom thought in goa her son will get into girls....booze ......drugs....etc. So much for our months of daydreaming. Then came last year. I still remember me & about 10 of my friends were standing infront of Big Bazar. One of my friend got his job joining letter so it was sort of a farewell. Soon all were going to leave for their jobs too. At that moment i stood up & said guys lets make a pact, next year 2012 we are going to meet in goa. Everyone got pumped at that time i guess & all shouted yes. I with my creative mind said lets take on oath. We had no burning fire that time so i placed my phone & everyone put their hands on it. We all took the oath that next year we meet in goa........All a bit emotional & senti......it was a touchy moment. The pic below was taken that day.....(We do look like vampires....cell phone pic)
Next comes 2012.....by now almost all my friends had left BBSR. Every phone call would end with some discussion on goa. The excitement & anticipation just kept on increasing day by day. We originally had planned to go during the winter holidays but we later decided for Dushehra holidays. Planning & preparations were underway. On the 18th of oct i initiated the goa journey. I think i travelled about 100+ hours on the train for the entire trip including the return. See this is how ot happened. I started from BBSr to Kolkata (alone which is really boring) then from Kol i was joined by 2 friend & we left for Pune on the 19th. We reached pune on the 21st & were joined by 2 other friends. Then we left for goa & reached on the 22nd morning. Our other friends joined us at the station there.
The moment we stepped on the goa platform me & my friend looked at each other & said we are here dude....we are finally here.We hired a taxi went straight to our resort & boy what a view that resort had......it was worth every penny.
We went to our rooms freshened up, rented us some bikes, had some breakfast & went straight for the beach. The water was so good & relaxing, we spent the whole day at the beach.. Later that evening we went to a club. We danced & had loads of fun there.
We did lots of water sports....we tried lots of goan cusines....did some shopping......etc.
The best part was the para sailing ....the feeling of just free floating in the air above the ocean....that feeling of peace & forgetting everything around you....... simply amazing.
All together we saw both the good side & bad side of goa. I cant go into details sorry. A lot of other things also happened but i cant disclose those because my friends wouldnt want me to so i must respect their privacy. We did lots of new things...experienced lots of new things......both good & bad...... But just like my mass comm mam told me once ""experience everything...... just dont get addicted". I guess what happens in goa.......stays in goa.
But all on all we had a fun & memorable trip\ get-together\ holiday...............& we are planing to do another trip next year but some other place.
Lets see how the next one turns out.
