My First Indian Sunset
Indian cities should win awards for their air pollution levels but those poor breathing conditions sure to make for beautiful sunsets!

Jim, my colleague and travel companion who joined me for India, and I had just arrived to the Mumbai airport from Schiphol and this was the first thing we saw out the window. We were treated to these sunrises and sunsets nearly every day in India. Indians must think they look bland elsewhere!
I didn't find the airport to be as bad as many of the people thought in this post, but then again we did have access to the airline lounge until it was time to catch our flight to Hyderabad.

Incredible sunset! I love the tail of the plane up against that orange glow of the sky--absolutely beautiful!

Well, it just depends on what you consider "bad". In terms of hygiene yes, but it terms of stuff you get to see no. Just equip yourself with a camera and have fun, then you don't notice the bad stuff :-)))
