Bombay for dummies....
Since a lot of u ppl seem to b coming to my LOVELY city (Sam;p), i thought it was my duty to give u guys a short tutorial on the geography of Bombay, if at all u get kidnapped and escape 4m the clutches of the kidnappers only to get lost in the back streets of Mumbai.....
Now, train travelling , however horrible, is the fastest and the most convenient way of travelling in Mumbai, followed by the BEST buses, if u know where u wanna go. Now the train routes are divided in2 three distince lines - Central, Western and Harbour. Western stations are places like Churchgate,Lower Parel , Dadar, Bandra, Santacruz and Vile Parle (which is closest to Juhu, BTW). Central stations are CST, Dadar, Kurla , Thane etc. Dadar is common to both and is hence the point where you can switch trains, if you wanna switch lines. Harbour has Kurla and CST in common with central, and stations like Chembur, Vashi etc.But dont worry much abt it, we wont use it much. Stations like CST and Churchgate r dubbed to b the Town side of mumbai , while Bandra, Andheri etc are western suburbs, and Thane, Mulund etc are Central suburbs.
A list of places where the NBS lives:
Anuya (me) - Thane
Akshata - Mahim/Bandra
Rishi - Colaba - closer to Churchgate Stn
Ayesha - Thane
Girish - Santacruz
Tulsi - Malabar Hill - Accessible from Charni Road Stn - Western Railway
Raddy - Chowpatty - Ditto
Any more info needed, pls ask.
You're welcome.
