A perfect vacation will always be on everyone's wish list, but making that a reality is somewhat difficult. Planning and execution of a good vacation is always a challenge. And this holds good for almost any sort of vacation, not just for a hugely expensive trip to some exotic "foreign" location.

In fact, planning a trip to nearby locations can pose a bigger challenge. Like what happened to us.

A trip along the coastal area of Karnataka is always very special, for a variety of reasons. Traveling in this region simply means that you get a unique opportunity to experience a variety of things - scenic beauty of the Ghats, beaches, temples, cities and good food! This is exactly the reason why our family loves visiting this region, and I can remember many trips right from the time I was in school. 

This time, we wanted to go there once more.
