Mumbai in the Rains

Life does have a way of throwing curve balls. How else can you explain the irony of someone who grew up in coastal Kerala and marine Mumbai ending up in the southwestern desert state of Arizona? Phoenix has been having one of the worst droughts in recent years, and we had gone a record number of days without ANY precipitation till we got some scattered showers last week. I cannot help but feel nostalgic about all the weeks and months of rain we have in Mumbai. As of this moment, I would give anything to experience the thrill of drinking hot chai from a tea vendor outside Dadar station while standing, dripping wet, under a useless umbrella that had long since given up fighting against the steady flood of a propah Mumbai downpour.
