Hi Folks, Wish you all a very happy new year 2006! Just got back from Mumbai after a 2 week vacation(yes, thats right....2 weeks), and had a blast. Frankly, I did not do to much than just eat, sleep and do minimal amount of going around mumbai. I loved mumbai.
what i liked:
1. Food (never tasted better chaat's anywhere else...also seafood is awesome)
2. People (helpful, no non-sense, mind your own business kinds)
3. Good public transport (travelling by train beats travelling by car ANYTIME!).
4. Sharing auto's (bet many people in bangalore dont even know the concept)
5. Shopping (both big malls & smaller markets)...wife freaked out!
6. Good broadband cybercafe's (sify rocks)
7. Rotis were sooooo soft(wife attributes that to the varieties of atta available in mumbai)
what i disliked:
1. crowds(there is nothing that you can do in mumbai without thinking about crowds). Travelling in second class trains was like being in a pack of sardines (first class travelling is not any better).
2. paan spit anywhere and everywhere
I had a chance to attend three weddings(and had great food). Overall, it was an awesome place. I doubt that I would wanna live permanently in mumbai, but it sure is a great place to be on a vacation. The place has life man! i mean all thru the day and night 24 X 7, which not many place can boast of. Overall, i loved the trip, and had a great refreshing time.
