Mumbai and Home!

When in India "expect the unexpected" and Mumbai is no different.

Lots of traffic but shock horror it is all going in straight lines and obeying the traffic lights and no beeping horns. Loads of people but walking on real pavements and no time or inclination to stare AND NOT A COW TO BE SEEN!!!!!

The stories of boom time are true. Still masses of slum poverty but gilded with economic progress.

However this is still India - at the end of a couple of lazy days wandering around Mumbai's a street hawker taps me on the shoulder and tells me "you have very dirty ears sir!" excuse me? " I do very good clean job for you"!!!

Is there any where else in the world with an personal ear cleaning service?

This has been a fantastic holiday on lots of different levels but we are all glad to be going home.

It might be a few years but we will be back !
