> Toronto Goan Overseas Association (GOA) trip to Goa, India, Jan 2012
>
>
> A new age of retired and senior members of the GOA has emerged. A group of
> fun-loving, young at heart folk who have finally reached the age when they
> can pick up their bags and escape the cold winters of
> Canada! This has been a practice worldwide for many years, very similar to
> the snow birds that migrate
> to Florida for the winter.
>
> This year, the GOA Retirees and Friends launched a new event. Earlier in
> 2011, I contacted Nick DeMello of Aerotours International, who worked
> tirelessly to put together a program tailored specifically to
> meet the needs of the GOA members. Flights, tours, hotel accommodation,
> entertainment, are all part of this exciting trip. The vacation is
> approximately two weeks, one in the North of Goa and one in the South with
> tours of ancestral Goa, the beaches, Spice Village, Garca Branca in Loutulim,
> etc. Some, however, have elected to stay on for a few more weeks and visit
> relatives, friends or just enjoy the sunshine and the beaches. An added
> option to this trip is the opportunity to visit the Taj Mahal in Delhi and/or
> the backwaters of Kerala. The members were allowed to plan their vacation to
> their own specifications if they so wished. Locally, we are approximately 40
> members on the trip, but we are also being joined by a group of other
> Canadian and overseas Goan Association members. Lots of socializing and
> inter-action will be happening. The departure date for the trip is the
> week-end of January 22nd, 2012.
>
> The joy of visiting Goa never fades! The joy of visiting our mother-land,
> seeing the smiling local residents and relatives, and being received with
> such warmth, is an amenity no fancy Caribbean resort can ever compete with.
