"Does the road wind uphill all the way?
Yes, to the very end.
Will the journey take the whole long day?
From morn to night, my friend."

Passing through Shahpur and Bhiwandi on the NH-3, a view of the Sahyadri hills through the fog...
Kasara Ghats, overlooking the bridge at the railway intersection, from where trekkers proceed to the village of Bari to scale the Kalsubai peak... 
Appreciating the precious moments of the early morning when the sky turns blue and wisps of clouds hover...
Brighter lights of another new day...
With the sun rising up, so does the temperature and here's a site of an accident through which a passerby nonchalantly walks past...
A bit of guidance and a word of caution at the crossroads from an uniformed person resting on the edge of the road...
Approaching Nasik, I can almost hear the cab driver think he could easily accommodate a few more people in his crowded cab.. 
A tiny village near Nasik on the National Highway Number 3...
A temple in the far distance in the backdrop of the Sahyadri hills... 
An endearing sight of the Sinnar locals in their white traditional clothes with Rhododendron and Gulmohar trees in the background...
....... to be continued

Thank goodness you were not walking on that uphill road all day :D But then you must have done that too sometime I am sure!
Beautiful shots of Sahayadri. Even if the roads good it has become problem as they drive rashly leading to accidents.
Mridula:
I wasn't..hehe..
But if you've read my Govindghat to Ghangaria post titled "Valley of Flowers: The Approach" you would notice it was almost an uphill trek whole day!
Rajesh:
Thank you, and yes, I came across one myself.
Nice shots Celine. This is the most common route we all take to go out of Mumbai. Right ?
How're you doing ?
Celine,
it took me several days to read through your most recent tales of your roadtripping adventures, but it was well worth it! Thank you for taking the time to share your truly interesting travels with us.
Cuckoo:
Right now, I miss Mumbai and the rains! For me, beyond Thane it was the first time on NH3. I'm very well, thank you. I hope all fine at your end!?
Merisi,
Thank you for dropping by and leaving behind these words of appreciation and encouragement.
The white caps are such a easy identifier that one is in Maharashtra.
