Steaming HOT Mumbai.
Just jotting down a few things that I remember about my recent visit to Mumbai.
. . .
Ever notice that in a centrally cooled office, it’s always a bit warmer in areas where there are more people sitting? India is already a warm country. And there are 20 million Indians who live at Mumbai. No wonder, I found Mumbai to be very hot and humid. Especially on the street. Could practically have filled a couple of buckets with the amount of water escaping my skin!

If you want to know how I got the above numbers, I walked down from hotel to office on day 3 with a pencil making “||||/” marks on a piece of paper.

It was an enjoyable trip, and “a learning experiance”, as people tend to say
