Lotus Temple on a foggy friday morning

Mr A and Ms F are still here so we are finishing up the Delhi sightseeing tour...and of course we had to go to Bahai House of Worship, the Lotus Temple....the building is so impressive....it turned out to be as much bird watching as looking at the building....

the park surrounding the temple is beautiful and while we where walking out we suddenly saw this big bird flying close by....

at first we thought it was a brown kite ( glada ) but no no...Ms F said look at that one....

he just sat there with food in his beak....something big...and then..

take off....guess we where coming to close....

we are not sure of what kind of big bird it is...anyone who knows ?

after this exciting morning we where off to ???

be sure to check in on my next post if you want to know...

have a wonderful saturday !

Until next time Goa...

The Park Hyatt Resort and Spa have such beautiful surroundings...it's a pleasure to walk around the grounds.....

the lotus flowers are beautiful.....

did catch some really small creatures....

beautiful but small....

the last pictures before getting on the shuttle to the airport...

......spectacular palm tree...

until next time Goa....

a last morning walk at Arossim beach

this morning we woke up even earlier and went for a last morning walk....and what a good one it turned out to be...

not many out.....us, birds, some dogs and some Russian tourists who wake up ...runs down to the beach to mark the sun chairs they want then they go back to bed !!! are you kidding me ?!

the suites have their own cabana....

lots of fishing boats out picking up their nets....then we saw shadows in the water.....and suddenly realised that it was.....

a group of bottle noose dolphins....we think it was 5 or 6 of them swimming alongside the beach and then headed out to the fishing boats....

it was so nice to see them but oh,so hard to try and get some pictures since they don't stop when they are up breathing....they kind of go up and then down. and it's a big ocean to try and find them in !

I love dolphins so this was awesome....I wish I could have jumped in and swam with them....

then they headed out to sea again....but still.... we got to see them....wow...

I will miss these morning walks....the sea breeze, the warm water and the fresh air....this is my element....this is the place for me...this is where I get my energy and recharge my batteries....

how on earth will I survive until I can walk along the sea in Abbekås ? 

I squeezed out the last couple of hours at Park Hyatt ....check in on my next post if you are up for more !

another wonderful morning walk on the beach....

As I've told you before, dear reader, what I miss most from back home are the wonderful walks on the beach...so I enjoy every step I take on the beach here and every breath I inhale....getting your feet wet in the warm ocean and breathing clean air....well, at least a lot cleaner than the Gurgaon air...

this morning it wasn't as foggy as yesterday.... it was a little earlier in the morning though...

where's the horizon ? 

two fishermen was sitting by their boat and repairing the nets...and talking....

a little up a head we saw another fishing boat but here the net was all out to dry and that meant food....for the birds....

 the crow is almost invisible ....merging with the net...  

someone was lucky.....

early mornings means little activity..... 

the sky just got bluer and bluer with our walk and after an hour it was as blue as it could get....the morning was also warmer than yesterday....a couple of degrees more...meaning it was "hot" today !

Sunset at the beach.

we really did end the day as we started it..

at the beach at sunset...

not a bad way to end a beautiful day 

good night or good morning !

life could be worse....

It's not that I want to rub it in ...but....life could be worse I tell you....our day started out at the beach and then it's been filled with the hard work of getting in and out of the pool...and the ocean...the arabic sea for those of you who don't know your geography....

guess who ?

we had company the whole way...the birds where walking in front of us the whole time ....getting small crabs...

yes ....it was really smoggy,foggy this morning....but then it just got better and better...

took a short photo walk....need to get to know my new friend better....my camera that is....

I, we think it's an osprey....

from pretty far away but the fishermen are working with their nets...

the garden,grounds here at Park Hyatt have lots of pretty flowers...

caught the little guy with his catch of the day !

now I'm switching to my Go Pro camera since it's mostly about water....

it's hard to work to just lay down and relax...my view today...

and here comes the standard vacation pics....first I'm in the pool and then....

I'm in the ocean...busy busy....

yes everybody was really busy enjoying the warm water...around 28 degrees celsius....in the water...it was actually warmer in the ocean than in the pool....

see the difference in the colour of the sky....can't miss it actually...that's the difference in taking pictures against the sun or away from the sun....

all we have to do know is to end the day where we started it...a drink at sunset at the beach bar and then a good dinner at the seafood restaurant.....

life could be worse ! don't you agree ?

Back in Goa

yes, dear reader ..we are back at Park Hyatt Goa resort and spa at Arrosim beach...and it's oh so nice 

we almost didn't get here yesterday because of really bad fog in north India....almost all flights in the morning where cancelled....so we where stuck at the airport waiting and waiting....and then finally 5 hours to late we arrived in Goa...

so this morning, as usual, we went for an early morning stroll at the beach...

not to bad ha....

almost a deja vu ...Mr M wore the same t-shirt as last time....but a better picture this time !

have a great day....we will...hopefully not burn in the nice sunshine...check in later for some more gorgeous Goa pictures.
