(^42) Vengurla – Arambol – 18 km
Seven kilometres of cycling brought us to our first hill, followed by an excellent
descent to the ferry at Terakol. Once across the river, there remained a further
11 kilometres to Arambol. But, again, Amanda was in top form and never
wanted to throw in the towel or dump her bike. She didn’t even have her usual
nap.
At first, taken aback by the place due to the masses of tourists and tourist trade,
we soon warmed to laidback Arambol. Touristy Arambol had its upside, as many
restaurants served Western food and we could do with a pizza or anything, not
masala.
A shack directly behind the beach at IR 200 suited us fine. Although our abode
only had an outside toilet and shower, there were no bed bugs or other biting
things. By then, we were so bitten and invested in a can of insect killer, which
bared the slogan “laser fast action”.
