adventures is what this trip got defined in time passing. There are so many memories that detailing each and every one is going to be a good test to my memory and writing skills. But here I go and I hope to keep it crisp and still penning everything down. As always, Mark – my good friend pointed out this trip to me more than a month in advance. The meetup events get filled so quickly that it was luck I got in. Initially I had signed up for a two-day rafting and camping trip but all the people (strangers who’ve become great friends) turned this into a trip much more than a typical rafting weekend. I’d put it down as a reunion of olds friends and loads of fun. Before I start writing my experience, let me introduce the crew – I can’t put it better than Mark did, so I’m plagiarizing. “Oleks (no FB for him--what a weirdo!!! Lol), figured out Hans is just as funny as he is bossy, Jean-Francois doesn't like the word "literally", literally!, Davy Chea who looks great in a sarong!!!, Kai Men with her fantastic smile, Philip --the "rational thinker" who talked his way out of NOT leaving to get more alcohol because he doesn't drink; Doan and Rupa who we could never keep track of; Abby the nicest person in the group, Malika and her credit score expertise!! Lol; Tyson, he Jumped! super proud of him, Johnny- did anyone else notice he said the most random funny shit??, and of course my good friends Jonathan and Arun who encourage me waaaayyyy too much to do crazy shit and who were my partners in crime carpooling and tearing up the rapids, and who also like to play 'sea-saw' in the raft! Wow!” – Mark A Montgomery
