Lake Powai

So I made my way over to an inland area for a change today. Lake Powai is kind of a less talked about part of Mumbai. It appeared to be the most civilized also, one of the people I work with told me it was like visiting a foreign country. After failing to find what I wanted at the GNC there, I asked the driver to take me too a shop called "natures basket" which has a branch in Powai. This caused about an hour of phone calls and meandering, he even passed the phone to me multiple times so I could communicate to a more multilingual friend of his. We eventually made it to "natures basket", and even out to the lake edge for some photos.

Aer Bar / Sunset

I made an effort to go to the races today, only to realize there were no more races. I think they are wrapping up the season for monsoons, Instead I was able to get some pictures from atop the Aer bar looking down on the race tracks, and the other things below.

Band Stand

Today I ventured out to Bandra in search of the BandStand. This place is kind of a mix between the walk of fame and the venice boardwalk, with some tide pools thrown in for good measure. Indians were crowded around the star tiles in the road the bronze statues of there favorite celebrities trying to get photos.

Crawford / Aer

I found myself at the Crawford market area in south Mumbai today. My attempt to discover the scope of this market was useless, it was kind of an endless maze of shops spanning out from the Crawford. Among the more interesting things I noticed were the bats which seamed to be following me around the fruit market.
