What a wonderful graveyard, they are so atmospheric and very calm places to wander, I find. Loving the pig and the ginger moggy, what a pair! I'm sure you managed to see all sorts of interesting things, eat fab food, meet great folks, and truly relax during your month of travels, and I'm looking forward to hearing the stories. Good luck acclimatising to chilly, wet old England after those Indian temperatures....<br />We've all missed you, darling - love you!

I always enjoy experiencing Goa vicariously through your photos. I enjoy wandering through old cemeteries so I found these photos very interesting. The flower garlands left on the stones are so pretty. I would love to stay in a place that had a resident pig and cat.<br /><br />Hope you and Jon had fun and rest in equal measure!Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11053430482502520385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-65740173092883563392016-02-03T18:15:39.971+00:002016-02-03T18:15:39.971+00:00Oh please.

The graves you've shared are so beautifully maintained; the pools of wax from melted candles around some of them are so poignant. How wonderful to have had a chance to see them even though it's quite sad, it's also so celebratory of the lives of the departed with the bright colours and decorations. <br /><br />I can't wait to hear more about your trip! I always think you look so at home there. It's defintely your home from home. I would love to visit one day. My brother Todd spent a few months in India towards the end of 2014/start of 2015 and he loved it.<br /><br />Looking forward to the next installment!<br /><br />Lots of love Amie xxxx<br /><br /><a href="http://www.creditcrunchchic.com" rel="nofollow">Credit Crunch Chic</a>amie khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07614317091196277992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-63612153787822523382016-02-03T07:53:40.538+00:002016-02-03T07:53:40.538+00:00Welcome home, I trust you two are well and rested ...Welcome home, I trust you two are well and rested from your journey.
