    Have been twice there and never seen a capture like this .Stunning !!!You are right to make holidays your priority so many people wait until they retire and then often it’s to late .Have been to India 8 times and done 6 tours It’s fantastic !!!.Never been ill once and we eat on the beach and outside all the time I say to anyone going ” Do not go All Inclusive “We have been all over the world and no-one can take away our memories unless of course we get Alzheimer’s Congratulations on your feature thoroughly deserved !!!!
