Finally – the fact that I have relocated to Mumbai is settling in. Not the least being the Mumbai suburban trains. I travel on a relatively lighter route – Bandra to Mumbai Central and at times when the rush hour is in the opposite direction. But then again – the crowd at Dadar seems to put things in perspective. And travelling in the morning to office has its own charms. The silent spectacle of the Welcomgroup Hotel at Parel, the low rays of the sun and the cool breeze. These are good.

At late evening, the lights from the train catch the oodles of stainless steel utensils in the kitchens of the houses by the train track. Metallic gleams which twinkle and flash in wondrous rapidity.
