I had opportunity to have a taste of Hukka this Friday , I tested it felt something like Apple bubbles drinking, Suddenly our plan was preponed to Saturday from Sunday. I was too excited & really anxious baout the whole plan. I reached the FC at exact 5.45 AM & surprised to see i was the only one member present(As per the Schedule the vehicle is supposed to leave at 6.00 AM), I was really happy by seeing some beautiful faces which came after some time but the joy did not last long as they were part of other trek which left to Bimashankar. Our bus left at 6.30 AM . Driver was really boring he never touched 60+ Km/Hr.
We reached the spot at 9.15 AM and headed straight to instructions. It was funny but something new. Then we marched with our leader towards the river.
I wanted to took the driver seat as nobody was willing, In the practice session i got demoted to back seat as my rafting was really poor. Who cares ??

We started at 10.10 Am & WOW, it was really special, i mean i felt like the same when i did the Paragliding.



We had 3 major points where we had the best fun. At one particular point we were almost 70 degree tilted.
At the last point it was the swimming zone , as we were having the life jackets on we straight away jumped into the river.


I don't know how to swim but the next 1 hour in that water was the second best part of the the ride. the last part was really boring as that was the still water , we were really exhausted & had to raft that giant boat till the last point.
Overall a great exp to have , would like to have same in Hrishikesh where they say we get to see difficult of around 4-5.




In evening we went Banjara Hills, it was treat by Rajesh with his friend (Karad guy), even though the rates were so high the restaurant was full with crowd.Now I believe that on Sat/Sun every rest in Pune is Full.

Amazing Sunday

I should have never expected to happen this in my wildest dream. Early morning we had an idea & we decided to follow it. It was first time for me in last 1.5 yrs & For Rajesh first in 4 yrs. We had nothing to loose so we just went. Crazy day everything turned out to our way & i was the lucky dog who came out smiling at the end of the day.I was feeling really special & happy that we still have that spark in us.
In evening I watched Rafa


winning Wimbledon 2010(First time his Girlfriend at the finals).
