MEETING TREK FRIENDS AFTER A MONTH!

I started trekking around 5 to 6 years ago. There is a place very close to my place (I prefer not to reveal the name) which is a great trek spot and a sightseeing spot too. I have a group with which I go there for trekking mostly on weekends, and have a great time there. All my friends are elderly people, some more than 60 and 70 years, and they trek along with us with great enthusiasm and perseverance. They are some of the people I am inspired by and would like to have that type of physique when I reach their age. I met them accidently when one day I decided to trek alone, and when I started trekking there for the first time, I did not know the route. On the same day, they assisted me to reach the top, and asked me whether I would like to trek with them on a regular basis as they were the regular people for the trek. That day onwards, I started trekking with them quite regularly, and started to make trekking as my hobby. Some of my friends in that group also cycle along various places in India. They are very good cyclists. So cycling along them has also led me to make cycling as one of my hobbies. 




                              I had been busy working since one month and was not well since a few weeks. Hence was not able to join them for trekking. Today, I went for trekking after a month. But we did not really trek today. There was a felicitation session for our team members as they recently conquered a summit of 6,200 meters in the Himalayas. We had a lot of fun which included cake cutting and some sweets. It is an honor for me to be a part of such beautiful and nature loving people.
