Adventure Begins...

After a very very long sabbatical, I'm back to update my blog!

Hmmm...nearly a month back we went to Adventure Park , Midlands. And it is one experience that I'm always going to boast of. Before that day, never in my dreams also, I had imagined that I would go rafting, fishing and kayaking!!
Yes, we did all that and even more!! (Plz don't stretch your imagination on that statement!)

It was 'Apatchi' v/s ' Top Gun'.....
But no matter whosoever won the the following sports, all of us rejoiced. It was Fun all the way!! First we started by Trekking.... the breathtaking views, challenging terrain and captivating wilderness set the scene for this challenging and fun adventure. The Apatchis' hands down won. They reached the destination much before we could imagine!

High on victory, they very easily and convincingly took us in the next activity that was fishing! No regrets... for I managed to catch 3 Fishes myself...and that was an achievement!! To hook the earthworms as the bate with bare hands and with no means of sterilization or disinfection nearby and not even the thought of it on our minds.

It was time for Rafting now and also the time for us to fight back!! And WE finally came out victorious!

We lined up for Kayaking next. It was going to be a relay. Sunz gave us a brilliant start, she steered her way back before our opponent could even cross half way. Aysh and S* did their part of the job. It was left on Nirv* now. Wind did get in between her way but with help from Shikh* she managed to pull the victory!

Last event of the day was Archery. We had to face tough competition from our opponents but in the end, WE WON again.
And what more, I was able to hit right on target at the first attempt!

So, the final score was 3-2 in our favour!!

But all this would have been impossible had it not been for one person, Fads. she organised the entire trip. Faced the blunt of all the controversies but came out victorious as our Captain!!
Cheers, Fads!

I would also like to mention a note of thanks to everyone who made the day memorable and funfilled. In alphabetical order- Ackmez, Aysh, Fads, Gurmeet, Madeven, Nimmy, Nirvana, Payal, Sankar, Shikar, Shruti J, Shruti M, Suhaib, Sunaina and Vishant.

Play on, guys......
