It was simply awesome ...Just four words for my recent trip to Rishikesh and Haridwar . Four of us , me Shukla Sir , Sumit and Navdeep managed to coincidentally and luckily managed to escape from site on Saturday evening. We left by 6:30 .
Rishikesh. was haven . We started early morning i.e by 9(Thats preety early for me guys)for Rafting.After fixing up with local guide we all set out to a higher level . We stopped half way to check out a camping site. Managed to trek down and then saw the 1st glimpse of heaven.Sumit going all wild and Shukla sir taking our snaps , we went on a rampage..Then got hold of Volleyball , diving and making each other run after the ball , we spent almost an hour there.
Then re continued to the rafting site"Ground Zero".We were directed by our rafting guide for the day "Ramesh".11 of us were put in same boat.We all geared up , set afloat .
going through the rapids ,uff water was way above our head at some points of time. Then there was this anthem we created with inspiration from one groupie which went like this " Jhing lika Jhing lika " for which all of us would shout back in unison " hu ha hu ha ."..We made an entry with this ,making other rafters heads getting turned towards us.

After going through some rapids , we were allowed to jump into the water.With some fear i dived into water , and water being so cold , literally each part of my body froze.But somehow managed to keep myself afloat (the life jacket was there) and with ace swimmer Jatian by my side we were wading through the water and went far head of our rafter. For few minutes after that i was just being pulled by the stream .Finally got into some other rafting boat . W
e stalled at one point for a break.We dried ourselves up for some time but it tuired to be a futile attempt as were again drenched from tip to toe in next rapid.Then it was leisure ride for an hour , we singing our , varying the tempo at the same time . Sumit in the end trying to man the boat was adjudged the captain of the ship.We finally got off board.
Changed to dry clothes . Still not over the rafting ordeal we guys just went through we then left out for Haridwar.Luckily got to witness the special aarthi .With everybody singing the the holy song .
Then with Sumit as our guide we set out again . He with very poor sense of direction took us all way round exactly to the opposite end.
Then strated the long journey , back home......
