second trip to alibaug - the man, the can, the sand and the sun

hoohoo....i m called the crazy man who went to alibaug twice in a month..... i'm like that ... i like serene and silent places away from the maddening crowd of mumbai.....this time it was an all boys party in alibaug.....and i was the only one partying in alibaug.......was accompanied by a senior from FMS and his bro.......nice guys nad very sporty ..... not as sporty as me......ditto as we did last time....ferry ride to mandwa then the bus ride followed by an auto ride with only one stop in between for lunch at prajthat hotel(i dont remember exactly)....had pomfret fry and surmi fry....mmmm...delicious sea food.......then i grabbed three cans of beer to be consumed in the beach.......reached the alibaug beach well before time.....this time with no plaster to hinder my movements i went and splashed around in the water......three of us all sporty and fun loving couldnt get into the water all at a tie but one of us had to guard our bags.......so we took turns.....then there was no sign of water receding so that we could go to the fort.......so took an auto and went to the nearest nbeach- Warsoli......cleaner quiter and serener than the alibaug beach....there was literally no one....and now we could leave our bags to gaurd themselves.......we stayed there for half an hour....by this time i have gulped two cans of beer and was feelin light.....then to catch the return bus we had to walk down to the beach of alibaug on the sea shore......there was this stretch of shore full of sea shells on which if u keep ur feet u just slide down....amazing! then there were these golden yellow crabs lazing in pools of water on the rocks......some of them were quite big.....overall the walk with a can in the hand was good......then after trudging for about 3-4 kms by evading waters, climbing rocks etc we could see the place where we have to catch the auto.....to get to the auto stand we had to climb a compound wall.........

the rest of the journey is ditto as the previous one.......auto ride followed by bus ride and the evening ferry ride.....
the ferry ride was good as usual with me sitting on the iron barricade in the top deck....i was trying to balance till a guy came and asked me to get down for my own sake....

all good things come to an end......we came back to mumbai at about 7:00 and took a taxi back home......
