It looks like everybody takes it in stride, though. How long does it take the waters to recede?

Well, I thought some enterprising guy might have a makeshift boat.....Never mind, 27 inches is hard to imagine and haven't experienced a monsoon in decades.....

Visit BandraKhar myself.

Could you explain the difference between Bombay and Mumbai? I work with people over there and they both refer to the city differently.
