Goa, India.

We're in the village of Agonda, in Goa. This is a popular destination at Christmas for Indians, as well as Europeans and Israelis. We're told that Goa has the largest Christian population in India--which likely explains its Yuletide popularity. But it also has an absolutely PERFECT climate in late December. Aside from the problem of a bad sunburn (which I attribute to a bogus bottle of 30 SPF Banana Boat I bought when we arrived), we are both just about healthy for the first time since arriving in India.

To anyone reading this, we send our best wishes for a peaceful and happy holiday.
