यह फूल मिला मुझे, पणजी में, मंडोवी के किनारे। तमाम मुश्किलों के बावजूद इसने जिंदा रहने की ज़िद की। जो मंहुसियत कभी अहमदाबाद में फैलाई गई थी, नदी के किनारे को concrete में ढलने की, वो अब गोवा में भी फैल रही है।

I've often said that #travel doesn't have to be expensive. In Dandeli we stayed at a campsite called BeOnTheTrail that charged us ₹1000 per night for pitching three tents. This included the use of all facilities on their campsite including a bathroom with geyser, and a campfire each night. Boating was ₹100 per head, kayaking was perhaps ₹300. In Gokarna we are paying ₹500 for pitching a tent at a campsite by the beach. Food at both places was about ₹2000 per day for six people. Petrol has been expensive, costing us more per day than stay and food, but we could have used public buses instead of a car.
That said, I recognise that travel is a privilege. Not everyone has a job that they can work on remotely, or can get leaves from. Not everyone has a car to just up and go. We've paid dearly for the space to store all of our camping gear. I have Sharada to take care of my plants when I'm gone. The list goes on. Just because I'm not spending much on this trip doesn't mean that I don't have other hidden means that enable this trip.
So, umm, if my travel pics encourage you to take short breaks more often, that's very nice. If they make you feel that you don't have the means to enjoy life as much as others, then I'm truly sorry I've made you feel this way. I wish I could tag Instagram pics in a way that you could filter out the travel pics.
I went camping with some friends three years ago, to Kasauli. They reached out to say that that trip would always be a core memory for their kids. And that my kids would have so many more such memories. Which is very generous of them, but it is also true. If you do have the means, and you have kids, yet you just sit on your butt all weekend, or all you do is luxury travel that doesn't let your kids connect with nature and with rural India, then really, get off your butt and go somewhere.

Music in Goa is the gift that keeps on giving. Today we are at the Institute Menezes, as the famous pianist Karl Lutchmayer lectures and performs.
There were two things that I realised during the concert. The first was that composers are handicapped by the mechanical limitations of the piano hardware. They are also limited by the ten fingers, two feet, and dexterity of the human form. All fingers are not equal, and the two hands have trouble doing completely independent things. Orchestras have there limitations too, and two pianists in tandem do not make twenty fingers.
So it was today that I truly realised the importance of synthesisers. I always thought that synthesizers are about sounds that natural instruments cannot produce. But a simple MIDI file can produce music that a human pianist never can.
The second thing I realised was the importance of buying local. The younger one, who accompanied me today, was in the market for a (digital) piano last month. He cycled down to Furtados, Goa's go-to musical instruments store, and figured out what he needed. Thereafter, me being the miser that I am, proceeded to hunt all over the Internet and Gurgaon for a cheaper source. While deferring the decision to me, Kavin patiently pointed out that a local store means immediate delivery, checking the piece before purchase, and local support and warranty. We did eventually buy from Furtados, but only because the price difference outside was <5%.
What I hadn't factored in is that buying from a local store is like investing in the local music scene. Furtados sponsored this piano and the performance today. Kavin is there practically every week to buy Trinity papers and other things. And it has perhaps helped build quite a bit of the local music scene that we so enjoy.

And so begins the Goa Carnival 2023
The customs guys being the little shits that they are, they've put this board up at the entrance of Betul Fort, which is the only fort built by Shivaji in Goa. When the Portugese clawed this fort from the Marathas, they turned it into a customs office. When India clawed Goa from the 'gese, we merrily handed over the fort to our customs department instead of the ASI. Now this fantastic piece of heritage is literally crumbling, and has no functional office or any customs presence beyond this board. Why oh why do the military, customs and what not continue to squat over our cultural heritage instead of handing them to the public or the ASI. Infuriating.

The view from Betul Fort is hard to describe. Something else altogether. Must go back there soon.

The elder one dialed things up a couple of notches and took the dinghy out into the sea. The island was too rocky and he couldn't find a place to tether his boat, so he came back. He saw lots of big red and yellow crabs on the island.

Absolutely fabulous custom vehicle made in Bhilwara, Rajasthan and operating in Karwar, Karnataka. It isn't a modification of an existing vehicle; it's completely built from scratch. It has leaf spring suspensions, rear differential, and a gear box. The motive force is also used to operate the sugarcane crusher. Lots of carefully designed storage space. The owner keeps it very clean and is very proud of it too.

There is a bird sitting on top of that tree. It's been there for a long time. I wonder if it is fishing, or just contemplating life.

Barbequeing seems like such an inordinate amount of effort. And yet being out in the hills, under the open sky, with a chill in the air, it's all so therapeutic.
