Hired a taxi for the whole day! £20. Been the length of Mumbai and experienced the joys of the traffic. We quickly learned,
1. It is a requirement at all times, to maintain a gap of no more than 6 inches between our vehicle and any other moving object.
2. We have priority at all times
3. The more you sound your horn, the less happens.
4. Don't drive with the windows down, unless you want to talk to every Hawker and beggar.
5. The monsoon season does not conform to human calendar expectations.
Had a beer with the lovely locals in a spit and sawdust bar, then went for a lovely pot of tea at the beautiful Taj Palace Hotel.
We're now sat on the sea wall, with a beer, in the hot monsoon winds, as the sun sets.
