Juhu Beach because of the sandy walks and playing catch and cook with the waves.

Gateway of India or Marine Drive?

Local train or BEST bus?
Train. I have made friends with uncles and aunties, have shared breakfast on the train. Travelling since childhood has mostly been on trains, so the crowd and experiences are nostalgic. Seeing the number of heads on Dadar and Dombivli station felt like all your sins were washed away.
