Jungle mein mangal!
Our challenges were divided into jungle challenges and maha jungle challenges with a different point system… my team started with 3 points less than the other team because we had answered some quiz questions incorrectly…
Some of the games that we participated in were
1. Jungle Fashion show…
oh… my team’s name was Mattar Paneer with Miller Lite and our slogan was
Khao Piyo Mast Jiyo
Dhoom Machao Jeet ke Jao
and back to the games now..
2. Getting water from the wild
3. Collecting 3 live animals
4. Karela Eating
5. Mushrooms eating
6. Banana eating (with the peel)
7. Shrimps eating
8. Raw Eggs (breaking and having them)
And then a maha jungle challenge… my team was supposed to make a Ravan, and the other team was to put up a 10 seater tent! What you see below is the Ravan that we made!
There were loads of ball games as well which we enjoyed thoroughly… I also managed to sneak out for a small walk and some photography during a break!
And we also had a huge bonfire! The sky was absolutely clear that night and it was full of stars! The only time I have seen a better sky was when we had camped at Pangong Tso in Ladakh!
We slept around 2 am and got up early too! I had Gaurav’s phone with me, and I set an alarm for 8 am and woke up when the phone rang as well! I did wake some of the other guys up in my room asking them to come for a walk outside!
About hour an hour later I realized that I had woken up because of the 6 am alarm on Gaurav’s phone and not the 8 am one that I had set! 😛
The next day was a light one in terms of games, but we did play a few… including one where we had finish 30 golgappas! I participated in that one, and WON 😀
The breakfast was some lovely Poha and Chai …
Overall, this was one of the very few trips with such a large group that I have been in, and needless to say, I enjoyed it thoroughly!!!! One of the important things being, that team won, even though we started with 3 points less 🙂 It was the last game which turned out to be a deciding game as well! thrilling competition!
And all of us heading back to our homes happily 🙂
Will write about the other two trips soon…
1. The 3 day weekend in Canada
2. The 1600 mile roadtrip
