Team TGDC salutes you alI

I have been up since 5AM, and just finished reading through each and every one of your posts, pictures, videos. You guys made my all misty-eyed - oh man - really!
Looking at the same city (I supposedly know)  from 11 different angles, that is what made this exercise so special, I guess.

Unni discovered the amazing “flag-makers”, and Gaurav took us to Dhobi Ghat. @Doc/Elena - I really loved that guy in that beret, and your documentary - never been there yet :(  Rishi you captured the angels in the slums so poignantly - and of course your music track (sneaked in the champions bit, huh); and Charu - that passing remark from the mehendi seller on Chowpatty is going to haunt you some time - right? Maya - I am glad you found aamchi mumbai -‘satisfying, spicy, eclectic’. Rooshad - there was no need to wake me up from my “Sapna” - you want to get me slaughtered? Mad or what? Hey Pavithra - I am glad you are hooked to Vada Pao - the Mc versions are on their way. Jumbo King and GoliVada et al. So ain’t I glad you guys got the taste of the real thing. Amit - Jhakkas, Bindaas, DhinChak - you guys captured it all - loved the ties - I am going to hunt them down smile Radhika - your pictures still melt my heart - remember the brickbats when I posted them first on the blog? Thomas _ i am glad you did the caves. This is one place that completely captivates you, as you stand in front of that amazing vista and imagine the times before Christ - that same very spot, monks scurrying around. The close up of those eyes were fantastic. Jo-Nam Thanks to you tweets and Rupesh tailgating you, I followed you down the entire trip. Nam you looked cute but Jo - you forgot to spike, buddy.

You guys are ALL amazing, and I do not even want to start thinking about what the judges are thinking. But quoting a comment from Prof Dilip D/Souza who closely follows this blog (and now is fighting a limerick battle with me offline), I hope the esteemed Jury reads through each and every word of these 11 amazing stories you guys published yesterday night, and clicks on every video, (which I guess is being buffered ahead of time by Team TGDC).

I salute you all, my friends.


Post updated at 12 Noon: The Jury is indeed on the blog review with complete seriousness, and as you can see from the updates in FB, are going through each and every post. Way to go Jury!
