Bandra Bazar Fish Market
Bandra fish market is place of pilgrimage for those who love fish as a staple diet.
I have been visiting this market since 20 years and the fisher women have not aged a bit, these impeccable ladies are courteous , not foul mouthed , very polite and respectful.
All the faces at the Bandra fish market are impressive, though you have to bargain to get a good price, the best time to get a good rate is at 1 pm when the fisherwomen have to close shop to run home to make chappatis for their family.
Hot chappatis thats what their husbands and sasu bais want.
On their feast days they dress ostentatiously, they love yellow metal.. yes gold is their birthright.
I get along very well with the Koli or fisherman community, having lived close to Sasoon Docks once upon a time..early 60s.
Than I stayed before the riots at Dand Pada Danda...
The riots was the wost Muslim and Hindu night mare ..
It hit the secular soul of Peace loving Mumbai ..the wounds are still raw.
One lives with them..
Jean Nevada Casino
There used to be two casinos in Jean, just a few miles north of the California/Nevada state line on I-15. The Gold Strike is the less memorable but larger of the two and is still standing. It's pretty empty and seems rather forlorn, with it's sister casino across the road now gone. The owners have sold off their holdings at the state line in Primm and hoped to redevelp the Jean casino properties as a planned community with condos, retail and a new casino. That never happened and may not in our lifetimes. Ultra-low Vegas rates, less traffic and a disappearing low-end market have made it tough for the outlying casinos to compete.
