Well well well,I'm writing this in the past tense as we were lazy buggars with getting around to the travelblog business. We landed in Mumbai early on the 24th august, after a 25HOUR delay at stupid heathrow.
Mumbai was a wee bit daunting but in retrospect i feel we didn't give it the best possible chance. However, we did have a wander round the harbour and drank some coffee and a pitcher of beer in Leopold's  and watched the england v India cricket match. We also got asked to star in a bollywood movie, exciting stuff! But we had already booked our ticket to Goa so we didn't.....
This is (I'm quite ashamed) pretty much the only photo we took in our short stint in mumbai : A very dark horse and carriage

Mumbai also wins the award for the absolutely worst hotel room ever, a stupidly small high ceilinged skanky cell with pukey polish vomiting outside our room, broken shared toilets, discarded furniture and rats! Bleurgh and we payed....650rupees (bout 8squid) for it! Daylight robbery!
