[Rohit aka Chintu, Abid aka Abu, Abhi as nai_Sapnaa_nai, Rajesh aka Rajjo, Pankaj aka Bhakerr n Me -NK :P]
Here Again...last weekend...We were...12 feet.... moved towards Shivpuri, Rishikesh camp.
One of the most awaiting trip....finally...geared @Sat..midnight!!

@Shan .... The upcoming buildingman :P.. U missed once-in-lifetime experience!! Hope..u enjoyed ur *ng[With gr8 respect to Pilada..no harsh words] Jaipur Trip!!
@Bhoopi ... njoy the shaking Indonesia ... 8.7 magnitude ;)

Morning by 7 AM, we touched the wide ambit of Ganga as well as our dome shaped camps.


The ambiance surrounded by series of sky-touching cliffs along with The Ganga was just awesome.

After having upto throat breakfast, we were recharged enough to make the hell out of fun and perform any task.But circumstantially River Rafting finally had scheduled for the coming day and we were free to roam as per the wish for the rest of the day.

So, we spend the day with hand-on-volley ball matches, noon-cocktail-party, afternoon-refreshing-nap, evening-water-fall-visit followed by the night-bonfire-booze!!

Meanwhile boozing, my phone rang and a girl proclaimed  "Hey, 18 ko tere ko Kanpur aana h...and Aaana hi hai......."Oh Neha, kya hai 18 ko??"....Meri Engagement final ho gayi h!!""...I really was not required to interrupt her as she was flowing faster than Ganga.
I reverted "Coming 18...Wednesday!...can't u wait for weekend..itni bhi kya jaldi h??....so r u really??...what about your di!!"... as she is the younger one.

She implied "Hmmm...Usske liye bhi dekh rahe hai...Tu soch le ek barr firr!".
I mumbled "I am not coming, its weekday....in mid..sorry!! bbye!!".

"Ek barr firr soch le...m I really thinking??...not possible!!..I can't..I m not gud enough for her!!"...n that spoiled my ....n resulted into two extra packs.

Next day...aaahhh!!..got a kick on *s!! [Pilada..keep observing :)].
"Get up..take breakfast n be ready for the Rafting!...we will go Marine for 24 KM rafting!"

Approx by noon, we were ready to raft with our Helmets (@Abhi: Saale seedha ker!), Paddle, Life-Jacket(It means folk!!) and countless no. of instructions and restrictions.

So we started, 6 on a raft, with our Made-in-China Instructor... Me and Abu lead the raft by moving paddle forward as instructed.
Rohit asked to instructer " Is it safe? koi mara hai abb tak??"..answered.."safe h sir..kuch nhi hoga!"
We had signed the "All-My-Responsibility" form and I signed for Rohit too :)
Rohit again " Yaar..mujhe swimming nahi aati..** kaha le aaye tum log."
Rajesh "Beta, Ganga Kurbaani maangti h!..Hey Ganga Maiya..Rohit ki bali sweekar karo!!"
Abhi "Buddy, Paddle forward, follow instructor command!!"..and putting one of his leg out of raft...saala, bada aaya Officer!!  :P
Bhakar "Abhi to kuch nhi yaar...Aaagey Majje aane waale hai...khatru Rapids aayenge!"

After the quiet flow of 1 hour, and crossing some normal rapids...we were confidenced for the rest of distance.Bhakar still continued "Aaagey Majje aane waale hai".

And instructor declared.."Sir, next one is Roller Coaster..start padle forwarding!"

We interred in the rapid...It was like water storm..raft moved down... "Forward fast!!"...moved up...HUMPED.."Forward faster!!"..Shouts...n SPLASHED!!

I was Deep in Blue.....in PEACE..Extreme PEACE....Paddle in Hand, Helmet on Head and I was in peace..."No vocals..No shouts..Nothing..jst PEACE!!"
I was trying to re-get Me, and thinking only of me, my past, my deeds, my relations, my life, my failure, my strength, and my future if I survived. 
Worth to its mean..Life Jacket..float me UP..And I was floating and fighting with Ups and Downs of streams...leaving raft behind..I was moving with the flow.

I was panicked but handling the waves classically so that I can breath properly ,but suddenly got extra weight n pressure "Bhai..bacha le mujhe..Main Mer Jaaungaa..." and I was below level for 3-5 seconds..WTF!! [Sorry Pilada..can't hold here!!]
"Leave me..saale...Life Jacket hai tere pass...Leave!!" I ried my level best n resisted.

"Bahi..Nai..Main Mer raha hun...Nitish!"..gulping water Pankaj wailed.
"** Panic na ho..Leave me..You will float..You have the Jacket"I suggested,but all in vain.
Breathing was getting harder even for me..as well ...as we were trying like best to sink other.
for the next 300 Meters, we were floating like fighting with each other and for life.


After 500M humping voyage, waves calmed and We saw a raft coming to us. They rinsed their paddle to help   us and here also Bhakerr jumped
first to hold it n I followed him. We were on the raft, Abhi also managed to get-over the raft. So At-least we 3 were alive..and...we were expressionless.
Our paddle and slippers were flowing in front of us, but that was not important enough..The important thing was" Where are the other 3???"


I was worried as I didn't find anyone floating either...and Bhojak...jst Married ..Oh God!!
Meanwhile I heard a call from other raft from a distance "Hey All, 3 folks are waiting behind."...end that was the much.. much needed announcement ...thanks GOD..Thanks a lot!!

We met...hugged...laughed and started our voyage again.
It was special...amazing!!
The rest of the journey...
Rohit was padling with suffix... forward Jai Mata Di..stooop Jai Mata Di!!
Abhi was sitting properly with both leg on the raft only.
Bhakar...thanking god n describing his meet with "Black_Buffalo_Rider_Mr.Yamraaj"
Rajesh...teasing us as he was over the raft within 2 seconds after impact.
Abu... describing his under-raft-efforts.
And ME... Almost Quiet..thinking about that Deep in Blue... PEACE n our destiny.

soon we arrived nearby the cliff jumping spot and I dared to do so.
I dared to do so because....I wanted to feel that Peace again....the calmness of absolute pure Ganga!!
While moving out, a girl realized me that I had hurt myself and was bleeding!..
nywy the girl was damn beautiful too..so I was smiling with my bleeding lips n blushing.. :)

damn MIND...few minutes before I was thinking abt PEACE and now I am ;)
That is called LIFE...!!


Isn't???? 


OR May be as Punched to me... "That's not Life, dats we Bouys...Gender Problem" ;)
