It was one of the best and memorable moments in my life as I tried river rafting as a first time. I was used to seeing videos of people playing in the wild water waves but I never thought that I was going to do the same.
And all this began in the early morning when we arrived at the riverside. It was all magical, the air was fresh, the water flowed, and everything was as it was, because of the view of the mountains. I was excited and at the same time nervous. We were provided with safety guidelines and trained our instructor on paddling techniques before our commencement. The use of a life jacket and helmet helped me gain some confidence. my fears and master new skill.
My heart began to beat more rapidly as soon as the raft was resting on the water. The stillness of the water at the start also made me feel relaxed, however, shortly we got into the rapids. The water began to splash all around, and our raft rolled up and down on the good strong waves. I was scared, however, the thrill soon replaced my fear.
We were all screaming during the paddling as well, obeying the directives of the instructor. It felt like a team adventure. The ice cold water that dropped on my face and hearing the whole audience screaming made it even more adventurous.
We crossed the largest rapid which was the best part. It was like a ship-drop! I found myself unable to cease smiling after that. By
