Monsoon brings out all the waterfalls (and people) around Lonavala.
 |
| There are a number of waterfalls at the end of Lonavala Dam. Some have paths leading about half-way up the mountain, and many people enjoy the cool, clean water. There are small concession stands at the base of these falls. |
 |
| Another waterfall a bit further up the road. |
 |
| The road coming into the Bhushi Dam area. Lots of places to "Pay & Park". By the time we left, people were arriving on tour buses and many more in private autos, motorcycles, tuk-tuks, and on foot. Apparently this is the thing to do on Sundays in Lonavala during monsoon. |
 |
| The footpath to Bhushi Dam. We did not realize that we would have to wade nearly waist-deep in murky water to get to the dam. We decided not to get that wet! |
 |
| A closer view of the river crossing to get to the dam. In addition to wading through water, you have to "wade" past dozens of vendors selling snacks, trinkets, and flip-flops. |
 |
| It's difficult to see, but all these people are sitting/wading on the spillway of Bhushi Dam. |
And so that's what you do on Sundays during monsoon in Lonavala!
