View from one of the commuter train stations.
View from a railroad over bridge.
Sari market
Colaba market, near my hotel. No space is off limits to cars.
The waterfront in Bandra, one of the more affluent suburbs.
Cool apartment building and birds in Bandra
Sunset in Bandra, over the Arabian Sea
My train stop for work
Mosques in the Muslim quarter
The Muslim quarter at night during Ramadan (a total food orgy and general street party)
Churchgate Station
Crowds streaming out of Churchgate in the morning (this is 5 blocks away, but still the crowd is this dense)
The Hanging Gardens
Cool clouds from the Hanging Gardens
Crawford Market
Fruit and vegetables in Crawford Market
The Gateway of India and the Taj Hotel (possibly the most posh hotel in the world, they have a yacht you can check out for the day!)
Haji Ali's tomb (a Muslim figure who drowned here, you can only get to his tomb during low tide. Check out the human snake)
Letter from Gandhi to Hitler asking him not to escalate the war. On display in a house Gandhi stayed in when in Mumbai, now a museum.
Einstein's eulogy to Gandhi.
Tender coconut. First you drink the water, then you eat the soft, fatty, delicious flesh.
Riding a packed train during rush hour. The picture doesn't even capture how packed it is.
Cricket at the Oval Maidan
Chaat (street snacks)
New flyover construction, turning the city into a playground for cars
The Bombay Municipal Corporation headquarters
Banyan tree
Sugar cane brought in from the country side
Machine that pulverizes sugar cane, turning it into juice (which is actually refreshing, not totally syrupy like you might expect).
Arianna on the waterfront
Me on the waterfront
Concrete blocks that break the monsoon waves, keeping them from coming too high onto the sidewalk. In spite of these, you can still get soaked by monsoon waves

Arianna and I in Kamala Nehru Park
