Mumbai High Tide of 26th July - I missed it :(

Someone sent me pics of yesterday's 'record' high High Tide in Mumbai (as an email forward) ... and then i "surfed up" (literally) some more from the internet !
 
 
I soooo much miss being in Mumbai ... at Marine Drive ... at gateway of India ... at Juhu Beach ...
 
 
Wish i had been there ... experiencing the Big Splash on my face and washing away the tiredness from my body ...
Wish I had been there ... watching the strong currents and waves which make you seem like a lilliput...
Wish I had been there ... watching the wild wild fury of the "Samudra Devata (Sea God)" ...
 
Wish i had been there ...

However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose so let me simply add that it's my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V." - V for Vendetta

Mumbai Local - First Class v/s Second Class

    It is an old joke that the difference in the first class and second class of the Mumbai local trains is that people in first class use deodorants and hence you are exempted from the smelly underarms while travelling. The mute point being; both class of travel experience a passenger overload during the peak hours and you are almost equally squeezed and pushed around in both. Of course, the seats in First Class are cushioned (unlike the hard seats of second class) but then that would make a difference only if you get to sit (which would be a likely probability only if you get into the train from the station it originates). My father holds a first class pass from Churchgate to Andheri (since past 7 years, ever since we moved to Andheri). He often travels by Second class in the evening. Strange, isn't it? This is why he does it … In the First class, there is an unwritten rule that on the seat, only the designated number of people (which is 3) will sit. No sq...
