Arrived …had welcome drink at alcove resorts near ozran beach goa ... its a nice resort with pool facing rooms and beach facing chalets.. they have a restaurant which is beach facing and we got awesome view of beach from there ... in the night we visited curlies beach shack which serves awsome food and has very lively atmosphere with dj playing latest bollywood music .. after that we went arpora saturday night market ... the market was good but one needs awesome bargaining skills to purchase things from here ... the music instruments' shops were awesome ... i tried my hand on singing tibetan bowl and happy drum... which was awesome

Day 2

we woke up late …had our complimentary breakfast and played with our daughter in pool for a long time after that we went to big vagator beach ...again played in water … after that chapora fort … chapora fort is the same we saw in dil chahta hai …the views were awesome from there .. in the evening we wanted to go tittos or some other night club .. but the night clubs are strict for people who went with kids ...they said that the kid will stay with either of the parents in the restaurant and wont have access to the main club area ...hence we dropped that idea and after enquiring ...we came to know that hill top allows people with children.

we went there but after entering we discovered that the place was good for only trance music lovers ...after this we went liliput beach shack which was again trance music place ...so we ended up having our food in a beach shack near our resort ..

Day 3

after brkfast and pool play we went out for old goa ..with panjim church and old gmc on the way ... finished the old goa tour very fast coz most of the places we had already seen in the movies ...we visited parra coconut tree road since it fascinated us when we saw it in the movies like dear zindagi and theri... after returning by 3.30pm we set out for arambol beach especially sweet water lake ... the sweet water lake is actually a little bit far from arambol beach and is at kalacha beach ... we immersed ourselves in the water which was not at all sweet .. after few minutes of this reality bite we sat for sunset view at kalacha beach ...the beach had more russian tourists than indians ...so by 6.00 we came out from there and did window shopping at the beach area ... after our return to hotel we went to boozebumps restobar which is newly opened in the area ..and had awesome vegetarian food there ...the place had live music and the people there also greeted like they knew us from before ..

Day 4

today we checked out from alcove resorts and went to leoney resort ....this was awesome resort and also economical at this peak season time .. ..the pool had kids section also so we did not worry about our daughter playing in there ...but supervision is necessary with kids ... this was our lazy day so we slept the whole day and at night went to boozebumps for food ...

Day 5

south goa tour ..

after pool and breakfast we set out for south goa ...especially palolem beach ... other beaches were on our itinerary... but google maps showed a way with forests and ghats so we took that ...since it was christmas hence palolem was bit crowded than expected ...we parked our car in a restaurant with a promise that we'll return and have food there ... the boatman took us to show butterfly beach and honeymoon beach ... butterfly beach shore was deep hence he did not stop here so we stopped at honeymoon point for half an hour ... since all beaches are same ...this point was surrounded by forests and mountains from all three sides .. after returning we had our lunch and returned to our resort .. on the way we saw the lighting on the casinos and at panji church
