India, Here I Come...

My excitement knew no bounds as we took off from Hong Kong Kong heading for Mumbai...




Saying goodbye to Hong Kong for now...


A decent seafood meal (Cathay Pacific doesn't disappoint on this count) followed by a stiff orange juice and vodka set me up for a round of entertainment - three movies back to back. The first was Our Brand Is Crisis. The Sandra Bullock starrer showed how elections are just a marketing gimmick. The next on my playlist was Extraction, an action thriller followed by the latest Bond flick, the Sceptre!



And I didn't realise that our flight path was a bit different today. We overflew Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand instead of the usual flightpath that took us over China, Laos and Myanmar...


And I was counting each moment to touchdown at BOM!


And finally we begin our descent into Mumbai!


The lights of Navi Mumbai appear!



Approach into Mumbai...


My heart's pounding - I am back in the grand Bombaypolis!




Approaching the island city...


Crossed Vikhroli and overflying Ghatkopar now...



Terminal 2 is visible now!


Back home! Yay!


Taxiing to our gate!


A few moments of Plane Spotting! An Air France Airbus A330...


There's Swiss International Airbus A330 bound for Zurich right behind the Air France Airbus A330...


Our flight path!

And now I am in a long immigration queue, before I transfer to a Jet Airways flight that will fly me down to Delhi in less than 2 hours! Gosh! But I will be back home, in Mumbai, in just about a day!
