Once back from the beach, we ordered some beer and food. I insisted on Kingfisher Premium Lager or Kalyani Black Label and the attendant insisted that Haywards 5000 or Kingfisher Strong were better. Anyway we settled for food because the 4 beers ordered didn’t arrive as they had to be bought from outside.
We had Kasha Chicken, Dal, Roti and Salad for lunch and decided to catch some sleep as we had been driving since dawn. We settled for some Pepsi instead of the beers and then caught some zzz’s.
When we finally got up later in the evening, the sun had set and it was near pitch dark outside. We went for a slight stroll on the beach followed by a couple of games of carom in the recreation/gym room after which we got back to our room and got down to the business of Drinking. We had carried a bottle of Rum and a Bottle of Glenfiddich. Oh and the Beer had also arrived; Kingfisher Strong. He had won his way. There was no way we were going to drink strong beer, so we started with the Fiddich. A peg each and I couldn’t have any more. It just got to me, so I settled for Rum and Coke as did everyone else. This was complimented with some really tasty Fried Chicken and Fried Pomphret (Fish). We had our playing cards to keep us entertained and not to mention Tata Sky so we could watch the grand finale of Nach Baliye 3. When we got done with drinking we went to have dinner, we noticed that the stage we had seen being setup was for the evening’s entertainment program. A local band had been contracted to sing Bollywood numbers. Oh what an ordeal that was, but then there was a section of the people downstairs in the hut who were enjoying the performance. We had our dinner and we glad to be back in our room away from the cacophony. But I must say it was quite thoughtful of the hotel to provide live music as entertainment, and I believe it’s a Saturday night weekly feature.
