A Day With Lewis In Mumbai!!!!

Yesterday was an absolutely amazing day!!!! I saw Lewis Hamilton at 3 different events !!! Thank you Vodafone , I promise to be nice to your customer service executives for a couple of months at least !
My day started at noon at the Indiblogger Vodafone Speedfest Meet. It was interesting and for the first time I met a lot of fellow bloggers. Obviously the highlight of the meet was seeing Lewis !!! He was running late and finally arrived after lunch but it was worth the wait. We had a lovely session with him , answering some absurd questions . I was disappointed to loose the Lap With Lewis contest but at least the winner was a serious F1 fan and a girl!!!

After our session with Lewis we all headed to BKC to witness the man in action and what a show he put up! We had to wait for a hell of along time before Lewis appeared coz they had a small parade and an army of sweepers who spent at least 30 minutes picking up trash from the road. It rained just before Lewis was about to start ! (Thank god Vodafone gave everyone lovely red raincoats) I have been for the Indian GP last year but this was something else. To be this close to an F1 car !!!!! Lewis was about 2 Meters away !!!!! What a feeling !!! I left after he finished his run in the Mc Laren and couldn't stay for the rest of the event coz I had to run and change for my last event with Lewis - An auction and dinner.

So I quickly changed into my formal clothes for the dinner and ran off to The Hayatt . It was a lovely evening with a charity auction of 6 items autographed by Lewis. I would have bought each one if I had the money !!! But it was great to see him on stage for over an hour! :) I took a friend along for the dinner who knows nothing about F1 or Lewis except my obsession with him. And by the end of the evening she feel in love with him too !!! That's Lewis for you - Charming, witty, handsome and super talented. Its hard not to like him! And hes generous too , he bid two and a half lakhs on a painting of himself that was part of the auction !

It was a crazy day and by the end of it I felt like a serious stalker! But it was all worth it !!! No picture and autograph this time but lots of Lewis !

Here are some pictures and videos for all you Lewis fans who missed it !!!
