Rock Garden

This plant and flower were seemingly growing out of the coral limestone at Coral Castle – www.coralcastle.com. If you’re ever in the Miami area, do visit this attraction in Homestead; it’s fascinating to think how it was built.

Bumps on a Train

Hemang getting bumps on a Mumbai local, on the way back home to the IIT campus. Sometime in 1999/2000. Kanjur Marg (on the Central Railways line) was our local station.

Wing Treat at Dynasty

One of our great wing treats in 1999/2000. This was at Dynasty, a Chinese restaurant on Linking Road in Bandra.

I still have that t-shirt. My wife cringes at the sight of it in this almost decade-old photo.

Wing Treat at Bombay Brasserie

This was the last “wing treat” at IITB. Sujay Sanghavi and I were treating the gang for our graduation before heading Stateside. For the then-unheard of price of Rs. 300 per head, we went completely bonkers eating and drinking that afternoon in April 2000.

The main building at IIT Bombay, circa 2000. This is where we went for our first classes at IIT Bombay as “freshies”. Scanned from 4×6 print in college.

IITB Arch

I’m starting this blog with old pics from my alma mater, IIT Bombay. This is the arch near the main building at IIT Bombay. The words on the arch are “jnanam paramam dhyeyam”, or “knowledge is the ultimate gift you can give”.

Scanned from an old 4×6 print in college, taken some time in 1999/2000.
