Bombay and back ..

Across the pale parabola of joy
Drove down to Bombay and back over the weekend and indulged in some serious retail therapy in additions to the joys of driving my car on the express way. Did the onward trip in 2.5 hours and the return in 2 hours and 17 min inspite of a 10 minute petrol cum phone break on the expressway . Driving in Bombay over the weekend was also good fun , with me managing an average speed of nearly 60-70 kph on the Pu Dru Mahamarg ( Its the eastern express highway ) , the highpoint being that on the way back from( Mulund to Chunnabatti , we needed to turn into Nehru Nagar turning near Kurla ) we didn't stop at a single signal . Wow !! The distance of nearly 16 km done in under 18 min. Wow !! Try that in Pune... I travel less in Pune (14 km to office from home) daily and it takes a good 30-45 minutes depending on the time I get out of home :) .

Also caught up with Rang De Basanti again on Sunday and managed to visit my old prof at IIT Powaii. Enjoyable trip overall :) .
