    I love the way the tower seems to be resting on and supported by the tree limbs! Great composition!

    The Grand Old Lady
    of Mumbai,
    with a dowager sniff,
    swishes
    her green
    and brown leafy ghagra
    about
    her
    arthritic,
    old knees.....

    What would these
    young minister
    whippersnappers
    know,
    about
    solid lives,
    mobilizing for centuries
    of memories in Mumbai,
    gracious welcomes
    respect,
    chivalry
    and great business lunches....

    They live
    their lives,
    stealing land
    from the sea,
    water from the needy,
    and power from the powerless....
    and never learn,
    that to give,
    is to be Grand!

    A most interesting building...with what I'll bet are odd-shaped rooms. I wonder if one can go to that circular dome-like structure and look out over Mumbai?
