So for the final part of my tour I met my better half and some friends and we headed for Goa.

First stop was Palolem a beach in the north of Goa.
This was a good little spot to spend new year eve, lots going on and hippy vibe. Good paper was found for nye, very magical on the beach.
Palolem may be a bit touristy for some.

As i had no smoke as we came in on plane EF went for a hunt and got this.

Cost 1600 ruppees about 20 quid, expensive compared to the North but tourist place so pay premium. It seems the Russians are running the show here, i got it from an indian but he said he buys from Russians and has to pay off police for protection.

It was what i would associate with Temple balls if i got in Uk, could be moulded when played with. Smelt rich. It came in balls.

Ah, well i never, also many other cultures used it also after a google, didn`t know that even the American and Finnish air forces used it.

Even in the early twentieth century, the swastika was still a symbol with positive connotations. For instance, the swastika was a common decoration that often adorned cigarette cases, postcards, coins, and buildings. During World War I, the swastika could even be found on the shoulder patches of the American 45th Division and on the Finnish air force until after World War II.
