Weekend !! Metro Subway a.k.a Metro Tunnel

I have decided that I'll be blogging only on weekends. I tried hard during the week to take out some time to blog, but I couldnt. So I'll update only on weekends or whenever I get time. And neway, nothing great happens during the week for me to blog. Even now I am blogging because mom dad are watching their saas bahu serials on TV due to which I am unable to play on PS2. No!! I dint buy a PS2. I just borrowed it from Nishad as he is working during weekends.PS2 details later.

Well, I left early from office on 5th (Raksha Bandhan).I reached VT station at 7pm. Like always the road adjacent to Azad Maidan was packed with security vehicles due to some protest going on in the ground as usual. Yeah security vehicles sounds better than police vans/jeeps. So I was standing at the bus stop to take bus for home. Bus stop was so crowded that even 2 empty buses wouldn't have been enough. So I was waiting at the bus stop for more than 15 mins , but there was no sign of bus. I finally decided that I'll walk home. Its much better to walk than travelling in those over crowded bus. Standing on the footboard and hanging for your life is much more exhausting than walking. I am not exaggerating, but thats how crowded the buses are during rush hours. And as I left the bus stop, 3 buses came. Damn. Murphy's Law. But then I was enjoying the walk.

I reached Metro Junction, and saw this entrance to Metro Subway. Then I realized that since its launch in Feb 2008, I haven't been there even once. Its just 15mins walk from my place, but still I never used it. So I got down the stairs and I must tell you its HUGE!! It looks like a World War 2 underground facility. Huge as in its long, even though VT subway is much more wider. Initially I thought I might get out at the wrong exit, because there are 9 entrances and its so long you cant see the exits. But there were signboards and maps on Subway walls. And I loved its interiors. The walls were covered with chrome yellow tiles and there were no paan stains on them. Yeah, even after 1 and half years. The ceilings are lighted by chandelier like back lights. They have used indirect ligting in there. BMC can turn it into an underground museum , they got enough wall space. Its not a subway , its a tunnel!!! I would call it Metro Tunnel. If you still haven't visited it , please do.

Since I had said I'll be keeping my blog post short, I'll keep PS2 preview for tommorrow.

PS: Muffi, my Top gear's this month's issue is here :D
