The Helipad Herald

 The ministry of Tourism has installed coin operated toilets for the tourists, but according to the tuk-tuk drivers- they have no plans for cleaning and maintenance.  mmmmmmm smelly

Here are some "delightful" instructions for use that should come in handy in an area of India where English is not taught in schools and the majority of tourists are not native English speakers.

The ministry of Tourism has been busy.  They are also hosting small cultural events on the helipad on Sundays that are attended exclusively by locals despite the English advertising.  The helipad is always covered in garbage afterward, so this does not bode well for the toilets.

Last year someone left a truck parked on the helipad which rolled on to the cliff taking out the stairs to the beach.  The tuk-tuk drivers paid to have this lovely new staircase with metal railings installed that leads tourists to the tuk-tuk stand.  This photo was taken carefully so that you cannot see all of the garbage that has collected on it now.  This photo should give you a good view of the protected rock cliff that was butchered for the project-oooops.

This is a photo of one of the many tourists I see every day floating over the helipad.  I expect that one of them will one day also have an impact on the protected rock cliff.
