Last stop Mumbai

Security at so many of the airports I encountered on my travels is far better than Manchester Airport.
Some scan bags before entering the building. The Indian airports have the Military on the door and you have to show your boarding pass and passport at the entrance to the building, then again before security check of bags,again at the boarding gate and again at the steps of the plane.
On arrival at Mumbai airport the driver took me to Marine drive ,the waterfront highway. At one point we went in a tunnel under the water .
We stopped for photos and I got my Bollywood moment as they were setting up.on the promenade for filming of a Bollywood movie . On 1st impressions, Mumbai feels like the most developed of the areas of India Ive visited with a skyline that could be mistaken for New York, so many skyscrapers!! Yet I know it has a notorious slum.area and clothes washing area.,which are extremely poor
We also stopped at the Gateway to India but it had scaffolding on the side I could see
Hotel is comfortable and after a 6am start I just rested in my room for the remainder of the day,including a power nap 😴Read more
