Multiple Visits to Mumbai

Visited  Mumbai City multiple times and enjoyed a day long tours again and again... !!! Visits to the busy and crowded city have always been exciting. Moving in Fort, Gateway of India, Marine Lines is my favorite walkouts in Mumbai. Enjoyed wandering and shopping in Fort, Crawford markets and Fashion Street which are full of variety and imported goods.  Also bargaining with the sellers has been enjoying.  while making purchases. This is real Mumbai and suburbans like Dadar Bandra or Juhu. 

 I LOVE MUMBAI... !!!

Visit to Andaman Islands in May-1990

Visited with Sadhana and Priyanka. First LTC travel to  Andaman Islands .  The then, I was working in Bank of Maharashtra and decided to go to the remote place like Andaman and Nicobar Island out of curiosity and excitement of visiting the islands.   Traveled from Chennai to Port Blair by Indian Airlines. Really wanted to travel by boat / liner, but had to omit the idea as the boats/liners  are chartered and timetable gets announced only a couple of weeks early making planning difficult.  Once we reached Port Blair dropped travel to Car Nicobar after realizing that only one flight in a week for Car Nicobar. 

Visited Cellular Jail, Port Blair and saw the sound and light show in the remembrance of Veer Savarkar and other prisoners. Also, visited Jolly_Buoy_Island, Chatham Saw Mill, Port Blair, Forest Museum, Port Blair  and City of Port Blair. 

Very memorable trip and wish to visit again to rejuvenate memories of this visit !!!
