Fresh pictures from a rafting extravaganza!

Spent last weekend floating down the Trisuli River with a great group of friends.  Two full days of rafting with the night in between camping on a lovely sandy beach along the river.

Two shout outs for the great trip.  The first, a local family run company, International Adventures Treks & Expeditions that organizes such adventures – Harka and his wife Emma are two of the best folks we have met here in Nepal.  He is a past Gurkha and Emma is an import from the Phillipines so we feel right at home.  They have joined us on our trips to Chitwan and rafting, so it feels more like family than anything else.  Second, Himalayan River Fun, our actual guides who moved us safely down the river, cooked fantastic meals, and hauled us all back into the raft following extended swims as we floated down the river.

A selection of some of the best photos and videos full of action and fun are uploaded here.   But a few of the extra special ones below for your viewing pleasure.

I am ready to hit the river complete with every protective element possible, including sunscreen
We spent the night camped on this sandy beach. The tents were stifling hot but at about 3am the monsoon rains broke and eased the heat. Cooler and it was a lovely to fall asleep listening to the sound of rain hammering down on the top of the ten while we were warm and cozy inside.
We spent a good chunk of time in the water and NOT in the raft – nothing like floating down the river (of course most Nepalis do this without a lifejacket or safety helmet.
Scenery was spectacular for the whole ride. Huge tropical mountains all lush and green.
