Get wet on friendship day...yeah
River rafting had been one of my best thought about wanted things in life.
so what do u do when an opportunity comes in your way...Grab it dude..... yeah i did the same. and more over
it was a decision to play with my Fear. yes water. and its clear.hahah i dont know how to swim
enough...
Got up at 5.30 in the morning; got the baggage Went to the pickup spot.
and yes our yellow bus was approaching....jumped into that everything was set...we started the journey....
joking around...making fun. it went on. actually me and rathish were waiting for nid to come..
as we got info that he reached malavalli...we told him to wait..yeas hes waitin there ...
i got the bike keys from him..me and rathish said...we will come in bike...
we both got into the bike.i really wanted to ride the bike.
"here i am ..on the road again..there i go....."
i started bike..and i believed..this is gona be somethin new..yeah..it was...
i remember about an old post in the same blog about moving with the wind...yes that was an imagination..
but this ride on the bike was a realization of that imagination.
it was so amazing that now when i think about it..i dont have words to write..
even though some parts of the road were bad..final 17KM on the bike was amazing...
and yes now we reached the destination...i saw the Kavri; tried to smile at her..
went near to her..and told.."help me hah i dont knoww swimming"...she was free flowin..i think she did't listen to me..
anyways..i decided to take up the risk..as..i was remembering those lines of an add, says
"Dar ke age jeet hota hai.."
in between i took jayarams cam..started to be an official photographer for the day..roamin in and out..took some pics...
and now the time has come..i need to wear life jacket..hahah yes arun ur goin into water..hooooooooooo.
we all gathered around the boat. our captain was giving us safety precautions what to do and what not to do..
later we all lifted our boats and head towards the river..
am ready now with the helmet...life jacket an all...i heard a sound
"Lets rock"
i screamd back "Lets start dude"
Excitement started getting on my nerves. now its flowing all over the body...
captain said..”all move forward”..i started...
screamin "Lets go hooooooooooooooooo"
we were slowly moving along with the flow..yeah it feels so great...in between captain was giving instruction to row fwd and backward..
after 3 km of journey through the water we reached an island.
captain said “get out and jump into water”..haha did i hear it right..
me jumping into water hoooo..no ways..i will never ever do that even in my wildest dream...but this devil inside started barking..
atlast i got in water with bit fear bt amazing..am floating and moving with the flow..coooooool..my fear said bye to me it went out..
hah i enoyed it..now captain called us back.
Yeah..i know "and miles to go before i stop" hahaha..we started again this time with full josh.
in kerala we sing a song while boat racing..all of those who are rowing used to sing this song in full josh.
we did the same in our boat..whenver captain said “move fwd”
we'll start...
“hey thi thi thara thithi they thi they thaka they they thom...Kuttanadan kayalile kochu penne kuyilale”..
hah it was so great...
now wee are almost nearing our "Lakshya" the finishing point.we were expecting some waves to hit our BlackPearl(i would love to call my boat like that.. coz of my love towards pirates)
we all were ready in the boat..waiting for captains command...hear beat started pumpind...i felt asif the whole river has gone silent .it started drizzling .water drops crash landed
to the silence created by excitement .i looked above. I could see the romantic mist surrounding me with hills standing at the borders of river...
and still i was waiting for my captain to say "Move forward"...
yeas i saw the waves coming in..i know we are going to hit that hard..
again scielence allover..and yeas i heard my captain saying..
"Move forward Guyssss!!"
we screamed and started rowing. against the waves...
even though we missed the waves partially ..we rowed with great energy...and we finished first ..
i decided to celebrate it we all stood together and screamed .""hip hip hooraay"...
while going back we all were travelling in an open jeep screeming all the way back to the starting point.
that was the best part of the trip...
Patience
i could see excitment all over..even for me it was a new experience..and i loved it...
i looked above to the sky...closed my eyes...and remembered the same advertisement lines
"Dar ke age jeeth hai..."
