So today has been a week in india and I'm having a hard time telling if my feet are stained dirty or if I have a horrible sandal tan. I'm hoping its a tan...
But seriously the beach here is incredible, rather empty with only the occasional tourist and some local fisherman. Really worth the visit to come here! This beach is in the shape of an m which is why its called om beach. The swimming is not great because there is a very strong under current but it will not deter me! When its 32° outside with 85% humidity, I'll put my faith in my swimming!
I visited the town today. Its a lovely but extremely hot walk over a rocky hill. The rocks here are so interesting, they're a deep red and look like lava rocks but I've been told they're not. Anyone have the inclination to google it?
Power has just gone out and there is a lightening storm in the horizon. How exciting! The power goes out a lot in india!
Back to the town trip. There are some temples there which I visited but when I realised I had to leave money I quickly stopped visiting. I did see a ganesh statue that is supposed to absolve me of all sins. That could never be a bad thing. Other than pricey temples, gokarna town does not have much to offer. Its beaches are the reason to come here! Especially om beach, the ones closet to town are rather dirty unfortunately.
Tomorrow I'm going to explore paradise beach, an hour hike in which most people don't bother to make.

Looks idyllic and hopefully a tan and not dirt, especially after your comments about the ablution facilities!
