We were at Baroda for a family function and had an extra day. So thought of exploring the Dinosaur Fossil Park. It was a unique experience. How to reach: 2.5 hrs drive from Baroda and around 1.5 hrs from Ahmedabad. Bus from Baroda to Balasinor available at frequent intervals. On reaching Baroda auto can be hired to reach the park. About the park: Raiyoli site is the second largest Dinosaur hatchery in the world and the 3rd largest fossil site. More than 10,000 eggs were found from this site. It has fossils of different types of dinosaurs. Kids enjoyed seeing the giant Dinosaur structures. Overall it is a nice place for 1 day trip from Ahmedabad or Baroda. Tips : The fossil park will involve some walking. Carry caps and glears. The park and museum are open all days. There are no stay options nearby. Garden Palace Balasinor is the stay option provided by Babi family.

Within 5 minutes rice was served to more than 200 people. Same procedure followed for the delicious sambar. Since the day 1 did not had much travel we rented the car from 2nd day. In evening took an auto and reached Malpe beach. It's a beautiful beach with clean dry sand. Kids enjoyed playing with the beach toys and getting wet in water. There are many water ...
How to plan your Own Travel People like to travel but most of the people get scare to travel on their own and reach out to travel agents to buy their existing travel package or get help from travel agents to customise package for them. This kind of travel plan is convenient but may prove costly and also there is no adventure in it. The agent may take you to the famous spots of a location, give you some time to enjoy at that place and so on. But travel according to me should have no boundries. One should be able to go where thay want, they should be able to take a halt when thay want, have flexibility to spend more time at places they want and omit places which are not as per their choice. No two human beings are same and have same tastes and preferences. Each person has different preferences. A person fond of Art will have more preference to see the architectural marvels, monuments, museums etc. However a nature lover or trekker or an adventure lover will not want to see th...
