Pink island...

As the boat moved ahead we were treated to a beautiful sight of a pink island! The flamingos seemed to be on the dance floor now at the mudflats of Sewree....

Some more...


And then there were some more flamingos...looked as if they were having a small little party with their favorite algae on the menu!

And then....


Up ahead in the distance we saw a row of flamingos strolling along..... in the Mahul mudflats where they come for nesting. Here they get to eat the particular algae which colors them pink.

Threatening...


The sky as seen this morning at the mumbai domestic airport. Though it looked as if we would have thunderstorm, it all ended in a whimper...no rain only rising temperatures with rising humidity..
