the hiking xperience

Scorching heat was feeding on my sweat as we set out for river rafting with cartloads of energy...headed towards Poconos.we hired 2 cars...and we wer supposed to follow the former...but in due time...one of our pals had an unexpected notice for exam and we had to wait till he wound up...we lost our way and went to anothr rafting place looking at the wrong sign board


It so happened we missed the rafts....and sat all down en out...Kavi was like..."all happens for good' and enquired what else is available...unfortunately it was biking and we wudnt be allowed without license. We wer all moodout and screaming and ranting en ofcourse sweating...

We finally decided to hike...I was seeing my skin grow from pale to copper brown...and my hat was wet in my body salts...dear dear anjum was making a fool of herself and everyone...and we all set off gigglin and steamin off...

As we trudged on...we came across the sign board, "Shades of Death trail" and we walked into it right away...after 2.5 hours of trekking on the knife edge steep
rocks we finally reached a beautiful beach wher a huge lot of pplwer sunning en swimming...we all had a dip and felt refreshed...

Later we met the other lot who rafted...they had a good time too...5 hours of rafting...huh!

But we had our share of fun 2 and more than we asked for....the heat had died down and the clouds had risen to cast shdows and cool breeze on our burned skins...

In life we always get what we deserve more than what we desire...i hav no complaints!!
