My favourite holiday

My favourite holiday memory dates back quite a few years. That vacation was the first trip that I took to Goa with my wife. The two of us went there in 2002. It was one of the most relaxed weeks of my life. We were beach bums to the hilt, hanging out on the beach for most of the day. We also enjoyed a hot massage which was very rejuvenating. The best part was the food though — we had a fantastic time gorging on a lot of fish and tanking up on beer. We just vegetated, doing nothing at all! I always look back at that trip with a lot of pleasure because I’ve never been able to relax so much again even on a holiday.
