Only once have we done very little - just needed the break more than usual.
Same as most we have made all the trips,so we now get on the local buses and have a half day in various towns,quite a few eye opening sights to see in some of them - a fun way to get around and explore and even better when you get the wrong bus !
We are looking at making the trip to Hampi for 3 days this time,bus and train so that should be fun,also going to have a look further up north for a few days,also as Allan says,we have a lot of friends(Goan and European) who like to meet up on various nights for a drink and chat.
Still a lot we haven't seen yet,if only we could get more than 2 weeks off work....
