This post is LONG overdue and I apologize for that. This year I was lucky enough to celebrate New Years in a fashion I never thought I would. It’s not that it was an amazing party or the best DJ ever, it was the fact that it was a new experience. This is what made it so good.
… Along I was waiting for Crystal and Marnie to arrive in India before I decided what I was going to do. Before I received the message from Marnie stating that they were in Mumbai and I should meet them by 6pm (This was the morning of the 31st that I received this) I was going to go check out this fort that I was recommended to go see. However, when I read the message my plans changed. An hour later I was sitting on a bus headed for Mumbai. Mumbai took me by surprise! Wasn’t expecting it to this beautiful! It had the feeling of Barcelona. Just an incredible city.
I met with Crystal and Marnie and we had a quick dinner then tried to figure out what we were going to do. Originally we were going to go to the beach for an Electro party...that plan fell through. We decided to check out this bar opposite of the hotel. Very chill bar/lounge with a little bit older crowd. It looked like it was going to be a chill New Year until we went to Leopolds, a bar down the street. We tried to get in the side entrance (by accident) so then the security guard sent us to the front entrance. One minute later we had another security come up to us and escort us back to the side entrance where we got in right away and headed upstairs. Great music and great people! Lots of foreigners like ourselves. Around 2am we headed to this roof top bar on the waterfront. We met some new friends, one from France and the other two from Australia. I’ve been told this before, when traveling you will meet people and they will feel like your best friends for the night. This statement is very true. Lots of laughs and good times had. Finally crashed at 530am.
Hangover Day
January 1st marks the day of a new year and our first train experience in India! Incredible! If you’ve ever seen “Slumdog Millionaire,” the part where they’re on the train is legitely accurate. Just smiles all day even with such incredible hangovers. Best Hangover Day EVER! Great time had in Mumbai!
