[Goanet] Goanet Reader: The Charms of Goan Dhobitalao (Roland Francis) I too enjoyed the article. First time I ever been to Bombay was mid 80s Late 80's I used to go alone by bus and left Bombay Dhobitalao the same day of arrival. I even watch movies at Metro (matinee show) before catching Goa bound bus at 3.30pm i.e. left Goa on Sundays pm and back home on Tuedays AM.
Since there was no mention of Cross Maidan, I guess it’s devotion or popularity gained say late 60s or early 1970s onwards here are few things related to Dobhitalao Cross Maidan clip http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i1-NdHe-fe4 metro http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoaukindia/2810935708/sizes/l/ Fashion Street http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoaukindia/2810935188/sizes/l/ Cross maidan http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoaukindia/2809963715/sizes/l/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoaukindia/2810051405/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoaukindia/2810936234/ grotto http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoaukindia/2811246133/ where a crow also prays http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoaukindia/2811246489/ New underground / subway opp Metro BX Furtado http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoaukindia/2810935518/ Goan food or xit coddi at ‘anttigher’ http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoauk_fishcurryrice/2810667468/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoauk_fishcurryrice/2810667314/ Moriye ambott tik (Shark) http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoauk_fishcurryrice/2810667674/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoauk_fishcurryrice/2810667812/ Cross Maidan also seen in this 1970’s film at 5.36 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVcdNJzhIkM Wax items (as mentioned in the article) http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoauk15/3046400226/sizes/l/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoauk33/5221586437/sizes/l/ the article by Roland Francis http://lists.goanet.org/pipermail/goanet-goanet.org/2011-February/206128.html [email protected] for Goa & NRI related info... http://in.groups.yahoo.com/group/GOAN-NRI/ For Goan Video Clips http://youtube.com/joeukgoa In Goa, Dial 1 0 8 For Hospital, Police, Fire etc
