The massive 60 ton cargo ship called, 'MV Wisdom' from Sri Lanka was washed away at Juhu Beach around 11th June 2011. Not only was it the biggest attraction for Juhu, a place most if call 'home', making it all the more crowded & dirty. This was the first time in history that a massive ship like this one was washed ashore in Mumbai. Most blame it on the high tide that drifted this ship while others alege negligence on behalf of the ship. So, all of us who loved taking our morning walks on the Juhu Beach, now had a 'room with a view', with that mega ton ship ashore.
Apart from all this, it did draw crowds from practically all over the country. Inquisitive, I had to see it to believe what all the fus was about. So, we head off to see it. I must say, you have to see it to believe it. Not only was I blown away by its collosal view, but it was non the less. magnificent. We were lucky that the tides were low & we had the priviledge to touch the bottom of the ship, which was obviously not possible during the high tides.
But with all good things coming to an end, we bid a fond farewell to Wisdom on 26th June.
