What an experience!!! the whole of mumbai came to a standstill on the 26th ....and yet the people kept moving...I just love mumbai...no city can replace this one....people were dirty and wet.....out of touch with family....sleeping next to dogs at stations....wading through water to reach their children....fighting off snakes.....and yet kept finding humour in the whole thing......some might say what else could one do....but people opened up their homes and hearts...people from nearby building actually took home children who were stuck in buses and schools.....radio stations played songs and gave directions and updates.....and the city just kept going...........ofcourse nothing is perfect and neither was Mumbai...administration just collapsed.....technology failed at the wrongest of wrong times..information was hard to come by......and I began to wonder whether the city would get back to normal.....feeling of total helplessness......but morning came and things were almost getting back to normal ...the great local started running transporting a harried lot to their homes... hats off to them.........and an enthu cutlet friend actually reached office on time today morning!!!
As someone said 'give me mumbai anytime'.....I am in love with this city....
