Random Building

  This building is a few blocks from the Taj Palace.  I think it's used as retail space at the moment.  The turrets are interesting and the overall architecture is definitely Victorian.

Look At Those Wings

The wings are taking shape now, magnificently.  I'm also within twenty rows of being halfway done.  Go me!

Pizza At Work

Just one custom made dish at the Mumbai Consulate for lunch.  They have so much variety and such a good kitchen!  My pizza was made to order and ready in less than 20 minutes.  I wish our cafeteria here did anything but fish and another Angolan dish every single day.  There have been two American type meals (one was lasagna and the other chicken kiev) in the nearly two years I have been here.

Pretty Tile

This tile was in the lobby of the Taj Palace hotel.  I wonder how many people walk by it without seeing it?  It's gorgeous.

Many Petals

Lots of petals, all pink.  Maybe soon there will be other colors.  In the meantime, this flower grows.

It's a Dosa

A dosa is a lentil flour crepe.  It's crispy and thin and flavorless.  It's also unstuffed.  You're supposed to rip it apart and dip it in spicy stuff.  Unfortunately, I never got used to spicy stuff for breakfast.  I was hoping the dosa itself would have more taste.

Back Of The Gateway

The back of the Gateway of India is a view of the bay.  This is where boats to Elefanta Island leave from.  You can also see a lot of moored larger ships waiting for cargo or to load or unload oil.
