I did hire a moped for over a week. Originally it was so that I could go on various road trips with others on a search to find better beaches and another occasion to visit Old Goa.  This was more beautiful than I could have imagined it to be. It definitely balanced out the boozy side. We saw magnificent churches and the ruins of what was once the biggest church in the whole of India. To try to imagine the size before its destruction was impossible. You wouldn’t believe how huge it was just by looking at the rubble from the entrance. Each bend, turn and climb led to a new room. So much so that my imagination went wild trying to reconstruct the church in my head. I only wish I had the opportunity to have been able to see it before it got to its rubbled state.
