Marine Drive..

The weather today morning was just awesome! As rightly mentioned by Pradnya (my friend at work)...in our company bus, it felt like we were going to a picnic..the only difference was the picnic spot was Lionbridge :D
The weather was just perfect for a day stroll along the marine drive or a beach. Which reminds me of marine drive..a 20 minute observation of the Queens necklace had put me to peace..ready to gobble some food at Gaylord. I sat on the Katta as we might call it facing the sea. The Mumbai skyline was a perfect symbolic representation of a metropolis. The waves came and lashed against the round custom-made stones..i always wondered on how much was spent just to get those ice-cream cone shaped stones made. Nevertheless, it added to the beauty.
The sea was so calm, quiet, save a for few lashing waves on the perfectly shaped stones. A part of it stretched as far as I could see. The waves further from the shore breathed slowly..as if a sea-god breathed inside. The waves though colored with the impurities of the city was a serene sight.
My back witnessed a contrasting buzz that owed its life to the city's lights and vrooms. @ 10:30 Mumbai did not seem ready to sleep..it only emphasized that the night was still young and a thousand things to be explored.
