We visited the famous Leopold's Cafe, another victim of the Mumbai Terror attacks, where sadly 7 people lost their lives. We spoke with the one of the Managers, who was there that day and described what happened to us. You can see him in the photo next to Andrew. Also notice the
bullet holes in the column behind them, the taped up glass in the windows shattered by bullets and what you can't see - the bullet hole in the table where we were sitting.
The last two photos are of Harish Masa with Shivani at The Victoria Terminus and Charu Masi waving us off from her balcony.
Unfortunately, Andrew had a sight mishap when one of the many stray dogs bit him on the leg. Nothing serious, but it did mean that we have had to return home, so that he can receive precautionary anti-rabies treatment.
This was a real shame as we were thoroughly enjoying ourselves in Mumbai and were due to be heading to Gujarat next for a family wedding.
We must say that we really did enjoy our time in India, especially Mumbai and especially the warm hospitality of Harish Masa and Charu Masi, who treated us like family.
We will return to India and Mumbai in the not too distant future, that's a promise!

Hi Shivani and Andrew
It's been so long. Your photos have all been amazing and looks like you've had a great time. This blog has been a good idea to stay up to date with your travels.
Look forward to meeting up with you for a drink when you return. You can come see my store in Putney. Its small but is hard enough work!
All the best
Jon
