As you can see lots of small boat on the river, local fishermen. You could see some people on the banks too. on hour the light made the water look green and when heaging back to the dock it was blue. The light is quite amazing
I am still on the river, my posting and editing is so slow, but then again I am in no hurry and I hope you willing look at my impression of Goa. The river – obviously had lots of boats there. Fishermen doing there jobs, us tourists enjoying the beauty of the moment.
As you can assume as we are on the river, there is bound to be boats of all kinds there, and I took photos of them. I loved how the morning light showed beautiful color reflections on the water
These boats are so beautifully crafted so I am sharing few more photos of them as seen from abroad one of them
The birds looked lovely by flying in front of the sun…

The weekend in Black and White
I usually do not write that much, but here are some photo’s taken at the beach in Calancute, Goa.
The beach was so full of Indians from the countryside, most had not seen the sea before, the joy they showed was so childlike. Tourist are a minority in this party even if there were plenty of us there also. The techno music came from every shack on the beach, different noice from all of them, you could hardly talk. There were beautiful bonfire’s on the beach and people were sending memory kite’s, we also tried, they looked beautiful in the dark sky. At midnight the fire works started and lasted for some time. Quite wonderful.
