Dear Diary:
I had an adrenaline pumping experience on the rapids on the turbulent waters of the Ganges at Rishikesh I along with my family decided to go to Rishikesh for leisure. The sylvan and idyllic beauty of the place was quite enchanting. The Ganges here is at its best! The current so turbulent,you won't imagine it is the same peaceful Ganges that flows so placidly at Haridwar. As we were sitting at a restaurant on the bank of the Ganges, enjoying snacks and tea, I descried a red raft in the river. Curious I asked the manager if my family and I could enjoy rafting too. The manager replied he could arrange for the ride.
So within a matter of 20 minutes, the raft reached the bank. The rafting guide briefed us about the dangers involved in the rafting and also explained what precautions were to be taken. After a brief training in the shallow rapids of grade 1 and grade 2, we asked him to give us the thrilling experience of rafting through grade 3 and grade 4 rapids.
'Whoosh!' went our rafting boat! It was mind-blowing experience. The grade 4 rapids were so steep and precarious; we felt the terror of being thrown overboard by the current of the gushing water; we were grateful to God for the narrow escapes. The falls in the rapids scared us to the bones, though we had our safety gear on. We enjoyed the 5 kilometer stretch of the raft ride so much that we had it again. This adventurous experience will ever remain etched indelibly on my mind!

Dear diary,
I was energized when my dad chose to take us to Bandipur National Park amid the mid year occasions. It had been a fantasy of mine.
On May 5, we began for the National Park from Ranthambore in a taxi. It was a hour and a half smooth drive. At the check post, we changed over to a van and went into the timberland. When we entered the trail, we were welcomed by a Crested Hawk Eagle floating over a bunch of trees. It is a winged animal of prey, with a thin darker and white body and dark streaks. We went forward and saw a peacock in the entirety of its quality swaggering and posturing for our cameras. A gathering of Hanuman langurs was hopping from tree to tree. In a clearing, a lone gaur was touching peacefully as a Muntjac deer rushed over our way. This goat-sized deer with its ruddy grovel coat barks like a puppy.
And after that, we heard the alert call of a Samber deer pursued by the clucking of the langurs and peacocks. It meant that a tiger was sneaking around. A feeling of sharpness ascended in us as we headed toward the trouble call. Before long, our van shivered to a stop. Every one of the travelers packed onto one side to look outside. A lofty tiger was cooling itself by a pool. It was only 30 feet from us! I extended my neck to take a gander at the creature, however numerous heads were obstructing my view. More vehicles united close to the pool. After ten minutes, the tiger got up and shook its body as it returned into the backwoods. It pivoted one final time and took a gander at us scornfully before running into the shrubs. This was the minute I was hanging tight for. I could always remember this outing.
