Tihal Beach

Tihal Beach, Jan 9, 2012.

62 km

At Sauras Hotel I was up earlier than otherwise needed to take my bike back out on the street before 0630. I could have it in the reception only on that condition. The hotel restaurant did not open until 0830 so I hit the sack again for a while. Thus I did not leave until 0930.

It was sweet cycling on small roads for a couple of hours. Then out on the NH for one hour with a tailwind and it felt as downhill too for much of it. And the last hour back on small roads again. I changed my plans during the day and decided to head for the nearest beach. It is monday today, the first weekday after holidays. I figured it would be a good day to find a room at the beach. First place, Salty, said they were full. The next place was a bit too simple and the next after that said they were not allowed to take "single people", strange. But finally at Sheelekha I was well received and got a very good room for a bargain.

There are only very few guests here and the restaurant is not open. Now I have been to Salty and had a terrific dinner. I will have a rest day here before moving on to Daman.
