Lone biker on a villagfe road along the backwaters near Astarang








A black and white Kingfisher!! First time I saw one (saw three more later on the trip)








A beautiful beach at Jahania Pir (about 7 kms from Astarang). See how empty it is! This is hardly 90 kms from Bhubaneswar with reasonably good roads (about 20 kms from Nimapara to Kakatpur needs repair)







All that beautiful surf and beach for barely two families to enjoy.
