Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims and people of Mumbai, India, resulting from the terrorist attack on Nov 26, 2008.

Capital of Maharashtra, Mumbai (Bombay) is India's most dynamic, cosmopolitan and populated city. Mumbai is not only India's financial centre and its busiest port but also the home of the world's biggest film industry: Bollywood. Its 15 million inhabitants make up all levels of the social strata, from the super wealthy to the homeless and destitute whose only "home" is the pavement.

The peacefulness of this image is a far cry from the brutality and chaos of the past 12 hours visited upon this popular and historic hotel. Thinking of the dead, dying, wounded and terrified with deep sadness.
