my mom, dad and sis were down to goa with me for a wedding. We were at one of our relation's place. So my dad says that there is a wild life sanctuary close by. His book says it about 40 kms away from us. Its afternoon, as the hot wind blows naughty/sarcastic jokes around, everyone is lazying about, the sea and some of its species in your belly. And then my dad and I decide to go to the sanctuary... others who have lived in Goa since biblical times say, "there is a sanctuary in Goa ?"... my mom in her subtle way tries to postpone our trip for later, knowing that it won't happen later... and others suddenly realize that they have stuff to do... "I have to go kill my tailor .. I gave him one design and he stitched something else"... "I have some plumbing to do".... basically it was very very hot.....
and so I packed fours lenses; a zoom, a macro, a wide angle stabilizer and a normal one hoping to capture some good pics... and the two of us travelled for 2 hours, and did a lot of bus hoping... looking thru windows as the countryside passes you by.... and you inquire about hiring jeeps to go thru the sanctuary and they tell you "you can walk around".... it was actually a zoo... the open type ones... hmmm....
and then we finally reach our destination and they tell us, "thursday closed"....

What is an "open type" of a zoo?
hehehe, hota hai hota hai :).
@ julieanna
didn't know the exact word... its a zoo without cages/bars.... but with a huge trench or so between you and the animals...
@ goli
yeah... hota hai :-)
but the ride was scenic... or maybe mentally I just came up with that :-)
Oh! I know what you are talking about now...crap, I have no idea of the word for it. Too bad I can't say English is my second language as I have no excuse for my ignorance!
