Vacation

Mumbai (Bombay) is a small, congested, polluted, tiring place. People need a break. Consequently, holiday destinations near Mumbai make big bucks :)

People usually go out during summer and the monsoons, since its the most unpleasant time to be in Mumbai. I went to Mahableshwar and Lonavala last week. It rains a lot there, and its quite pleasant. The area is practically barren during other times of the year, but its completely green in the monsoon.

Its not the same place, but thats the general view during these 2 months. Its amazing how much the landscape can change in a single year!
