Elephanta Island

Elephanta Island is reached from Mumbai by boat.

The chief attraction are the caves with statues of Shiva.

Here are the statues themselves.

An Indian family was so happy to see foreighners that they wanted to make a snapshot.

There are lots of monkeys living on the island...

... And sometimes they get a Fanta bottle.

At low tide, the fishermen gather around their ships.
