I have boarded the Kurla train at Coimbatore around 5.00 am. I was bit sleepy and went to sleep in a few minutes. When I woke up our train was traveling among hills ( nearing Hosur ) . It was a pleasent morning with in that mountain terrain. We reached Bangalore in the afternoon. The whole station is full of Butterflies! We could see the housing projects coming up in many places. People have talked about the traffic Jams. When I was working in BPL in 1999 it was a calm and gentle city. Call centers and IT parks have changed it into a busy metropolis.

Then we entered Andharapradesh area. All dry lands. Nothing much to see. Next day morning we reached Pune. I took lunch in one finest restaurent ( Coloseum !? ) in Pune railway station.... It is very neat and one can get good south indian dishes. I took one Thali Meals. Train started around 8.45 towards Mumbai. We reached Lonavala in a couple of hours. It is like our coonoor. Very nice climate. We reached Lokamanya Tilak Station around 2.00 pm. Heads heads and heads everwhere! ... will continue my Mumbai Musings tomorrow....

I Escaped from the crowds!

Last Two days (Monday & Tuesday) I was practically suffering . The reason is I was in mumbai in those days. Though I stayed in Dadar , I have to travel to many locations and Taxi'x can not help you there if you want to reach any place in time. The best mode is Electric Trains. They stopped just 13 seconds in one station and the whole crowd has to be in and out! Everywhere heads heads and more heads... each along with their couple of legs! Tuesday night I could escape from the crowd by VOLVO bus to Pune! Will write more on my Mumbai experiences in a few days time! Now I am relaxing in cool Pune !
