Suzanne, I am glad it went well. We also thought Mumbai could be overwhelming due to those crowds.
Marcie, the Taj was truly an amazing looking hotel inside and out, but it is so close to the "Gateway to India" where people just hang out waiting to prey on tourists. I am guessing your husband learned all the ins and outs on how to get left alone in and around town so that he did not have 6 months of hassle.
