Saturday, April 7,
we’re in Mumbai. The name was officially
changed from Bombay by an Act of Parliament in 1997, and Mumbai is built on
seven islands which are joined to the mainland by an artificial causeway. Also, Mumbai is one of the most populous
cities in the world and it shows when you try to traverse a street.
We left Chennai with the sun setting and arrived 3 days
later with the sun rising over Bombay Harbor.
Taking our place at our berth provided many interesting sites, men doing
laundry, fishing for their breakfast, sailing lessons in small dinghy’s and
many cargo ships waiting their turn at a port berth.
Several people remained onboard today and we were among
them, again……
Tonight we leave India and begin our trip across the Arabian
Sea to Manama, Bahrain.
