I always enjoy traveling and like to visit new places and like to know about new places and their people and cultures, every year we planned to make 2 trips one is for pilgrims and one is for fun, fortunate we couldn't go any trips past two years doe the pandemic situation.

So far we have traveled with family to places like Delhi, Agra, Goa, Pondicherry, Gujarat, Shimla, Kerala, Mysore, and Ooty but never traveled abroad because of over to our budget, but still, we have enjoyed very much the trip along with my family. One of the more recent and rememberable trips was Goa.

We went goa on 2019 in the summer season, during this season, the number of foreign tourists is less compared to the number of domestic tourists, so obviously, things cost and rooms rents are available at reasonable prices.

We have booked our flight from Coimbatore to Goa there was no direct flight to go so we had to book two flights Coimbatore-Bangalore and Banglore -Goa. We booked our rooms in "Karma Royal Haathi Mahal" a 3-star resort situated on the bank of the Arabian sea, Cavelossim Beach in the southern part of Goa.

The resort was amazing, I really liked the ambiance, especially the furnished the rooms are elegant, the swimming pool kids playground, gym spa are very neat and very thank fol to their staff's hospitality and services.

There are many attractions, sites seeing in south Goa such as Ancient churches, Dolphin viewpoint, beaches, museums, aquarium etc. On the season day, we went Bigfoot museum which is famous for sculptures, those sculptures were created to express Indian and Goan people's culture, history, and lifestyle, there were so many statues kept in the museum, we have taken several pictures of them, I could not post all the picture here. There were also so many antique collections of English, Portuguese and ancient Indian kingdoms.

The Next day we went to see a dolphins viewpoint where we could see hoping dolphins in the sea, the taxi driver took us to the harbor early at 8 am, we had to go to the pion by two-storeyed boat, we bought tickets went board on a boat, the boat moved after a couple of minutes on the way the guide told us the history of goa side view mountains, the boat has taken us almost middle of the sea where tides are slow.

The guide said that any time dolphins can hop out of the water, after waiting a few minutes, suddenly the guide raised his index finger and show, there were few dolphins jumping beautifully at the same time opposite side also few dolphins came and hop, we have enjoyed them very much and the boat taken back.

On the way, we went to see an ancient church and also Spice garden, which where a lot of spice plants were grown such as cardamom, pepper, cinnamon, clove, etc and there we had traditional Goan lunch with nonvegetarian food

In the evening we hired self-drive scooters and went to Belgium beach and played for a couple of hours in seawater my kids wanted to fly in the parachute, they charged 300 for a ride, after the ride we went back to the resort and the kids went to the swimming pool, the next day we went to another beach, and in the evening the resort organized magic show and some activities in the swimming pool area.

We spent 4 nights and 5 days in the resort and enjoyed the trip very much, Goa is the ultimate place to visit and we want to visit again. Many thanks to @steemcurator01 sir, for the support and @nainaztengra for giving me the opportunity to express our trip enjoyments.
