This year it’s my first proper encounter with the rain, as opposed to last year where I was in the hostel most of the time in Town – where it hardly ever rained as much as it did in the suburbs. Now that I’m the ’suburban mumbaikar’, I see how people keep the rain off, at home. It’s obvious that you sohuldn’t step out when it’s pissing down, but that’s not where it ends. Totally safe from the rain is when you’re home with windows shut and dirty blue or black plastic sheets put on the outside of the windows so that the rainwater doesn’t come in.

So we mounted acrylic sheets on the grill. And now we just sit by the window sil and enjoy the view! :)
