Mumbai moments….
While I try to untangle the mess my work is in from three weeks of absence, here are some photos from Mumbai taken during the trip (click for full image).
(Previous nostalgia about Mumbai here)
A microcosm of Mumbai ? High-rises next to old buildings, monsoon rains, the sea……the choked traffic:
A man with a Mission (Keep the Queen’s Necklace clean):
Marine Drive from the Nariman Point end:
Gateway (there was quite a bit of construction going on by ASI to restore the structure):
Taj Mahal Hotel:
Won’t find the next three on any tourist route, purely personal:
Juhu Chowpatty – the cow was going beserk (something the eminent Varma-sahib said ?):
Chowpatty again, against the sun-set (such as is visible now-a-days):
The Main Attractions in Juhu
:
The famous Haji-Ali:









Oh! Home!! I see!!
Seems like mumbai has changed quite a bit and yet remained the same

the most important question is, which direction is the cow facing? I think its East…

@Sakshi: you should be able to tell very soon
@Rahul: More like a south-easterly direction
btw, the campus hasn’t changed much as in it is still full of cows and their shit.
