Velas Turtle Festival - Part 5/5 - Village Experience

The village experience in Velas was memorable with morning walks to the beach, having home made food and more importantly lived 2 days without mobile signal, forget about internet.


After the Velas beach visit on the 2nd day, we had authentic poha for breakfast and headed for the nearby Baankot fort. The fort was close by but the road was narrow. At one point, as seen in the picture below, there wasn't enough space for the bus to take turn for uphill. The driver asked half of us to get down, took the bus in reverse direction and had taken a turn, by this time few from our group starting walking. Rest of us went ahead in the bus and asked the driver to stop considering it to be a long walk for our fellow members. Fortunately for us, it was cloudy that day and at this juncture most of us got down and trekked uphill to reach the fort.
