Have any of you travelled by the NNMT buses here in Navi Mumbai? They’re surprisingly reliable, and have very comfortable benches, unlike the air-conditioned buses which have the most uncomfortable chairs. And all that noise and rattling can be pretty relaxing!

Here’s a poem for those of you who have stopped travelling by bus. Hope it brings back good memories.

Fifty percent still working,

Running on hope and on faith.

Parts falling off but still running.

The support system that takes us from place to place.

There’s nothing like a bus ride in the bright morning sun.

The wind on my face, and the noise – so relaxing!

This is my idea of fun.
