It's raining at dawn. We are looking for a place to connect to the Internet. We go to an agency to buy plane tickets to go back to Dehli and from there to Agra, the Taj Mahal is waiting for us.
Our accommodation does not offer breakfast but we found a place nearby, in the Clafouti also with a view of the sea.
We have an early breakfast and go to the bus station, take a bus to Alappuzha and visit the famous Backwaters. It is one of the biggest attractions of the Kerala region, and it is not for less. It is a labyrinth composed by hundreds of channels that communicate five big lakes, in which spices and coconut trees join with the Arabian Sea.
It's starting to get light and the conductor hasn't passed. The train has made several stops during the night, in this last one a man goes up selling rice and chai (tea with milk), we buy one of each to try it, the truth is that it is not very good. Sometimes it's not a good idea to buy food from the street vendors, you don't really know how long the food takes to prepare.
We get up early and after breakfast at the accommodation with incredible views, we take a bus from Panjim to Old Goa.
Panjim Bus Station
We arrive at Indira Gandhi International Airport in Delhi, change terminal and take another flight to Goa (Panjim). To enter the terminal we have to show the policeman at the entrance the paper with the reservation of the tickets, otherwise they don't let you in and the man doesn't understand Spanish, crazy.
We take the car to go from Burgos to the Barajas Adolfo Suárez International Airport in Madrid, we leave it in the parking lot of the company Aparcar y Despega in San Sebastián de los Reyes.
