Ok, before I go away for the weekend...let me tell you that -

I have been looking forward to this weekend since months now...

A close friend shall be visiting India for the first time (two weeks Bharat Drashan trip) and some friends and I shall be taking her around Mumbai tomorrow.

I have been out shopping for all ethnic Indian stuff for her and am looking forward to this great Gifting Indian ritual !

I generally hate to shop, yet, when it comes to loved ones, I loooveee to go around the bazaars, look around for valuable stuff that shall please and make them happy !

Also, tomorrow we shall be showing her off the Taj, Colaba Causeway, treating her with a sandwich at Cafe Leopold, Lunch at Delhi Durbar/Chetna, trip to the Elephanta Caves, Prince of Wales Museum, a drive along the Queens Necklace, some Kala Khatta at Chowpatty and finally a dinner party at Bar-be-que Nation at Bandra.

I want her to see a LOT more - like maybe the Discs at the Marriott and Lower Parel, the clubbing scene, Haji Ali, ISKCON temple, Prithvi & NCPA, etc...

Yet, to fit all of these and some more in a span of 2 days looks like a herculean task...

Still, if you guys have any MORE suggestions about the "must visit" places in Mumbai...do drop a line !

Thanks in advance :)

Now, you can go ahead and have a greatttt weekend too !

Hmmm, i guess for 2 days, this is more than enough.
U would hav to show her al the places on a timely basis, bt still its worth it.
