Sipaghat- Indrawati- Rafting Starts

Day 2: Continuously four hours into Indrawati river. I was a bit nervous in the beginning. There was a mild rapid withing 100 meters from our starting point. Could I pass through that hurdle? I did. What about many more that may lie ahead? It turned out to be the most challenging rapid in the whole duration. We met and saw many kids in and by the river who were swimming, fishing, playing and returning home from their schools. Some tried to chase us in river. By the time we reached Dolalghat I was very tired. My arms were aching. I was hungry. But the river was easy, I was in control of my boat, I maneuvered well and took the boat wherever I wanted. There were some scary moments but I handled them well. At Dolalghat, I got off the boat as a confident rafter. Fish and Sprite at Dolalghat. Then into a bus for Jalbire. When too many people came into the bus we decided to go at the top.
