Bombay calling

I arrived in Bombay at 1 am last night and emerged into the stifling heat at roughly 2. Madness and chaos and no pickup. The smells and noise can't be described, but tired as I was the place has an effect not unlike a mega-caffeine cup of coffee.
Too much coffee can send me to the toilet but as I was to find upon retreating back into the terminal, toilet paper was in short supply.

I'm not squeamish so business was done, and bits were washed.
Finally I met up with my ride and I was off into the night.

Not many pics as I had to get up at 5:30 and fly to Pune this morning. I forgot my camera but from what I've seen of Mumbai, there's plenty of pictures to come.
One scary note:
On the bus from the plane to the terminal we hit a stray dog. There are isolated groups of them wandering the tarmac.
Yikes.
Still, I gotta tell ya......

This place gives me a high octane buzz.
More to come over the coming days so stay tuned!
Love to all
Stay healthy!
