WHEN MAPUSA TOWN WAS NOT CLUTTERED


THIS WAS THE TIME
 WHEN MAPUSA TOWN (Bardez, Goa) WAS NOT CLUTTERED.


Tony on his standard 'Atlas' bicycle - 12V 2-beam headlight, horn, rear light, rear-view mirror, full chain cover and rear bracket with spring, riding along the perimeter of the newly constructed Municipal Market. Photo 1965, looking West. In the background: coconut tree-lined Mapusa/Panjim, Mapusa/Calangute Road, at an acute angle, partly visible Bodgeshwar Temple, and villages and hills of Canca and Parra in the distance. Memory of my teens.
