Beach Holiday at Shreewardhan

There is a beach called Shreewardhan. actually, it's a small town on the Maharshtra coast. We went there in a motley group of about 15 extended family members- ages 2 to 80. Had a fabulous time, doing almost nothing except eat, drink and sleep. If you exclude the swimming, the long walks, the meditation sessions including Kriya yoga and Zen meditation, and gup-shup about everything under the sun, from American politics to Indian sports.

Highly sporting dance and music sessions, dominated by the 2 year old (my niece) who danced non-stop for 2 and a half hours. The resort had a tree house, a hammock, charpoys, lots of trees, and no one else but us- I felt as if paradise had been relocated, for the three days I was there. Great place to chill- they even had chilled beer in the town.
