That day I woke up early in the morning, brushed my teeth and I went for a bath because I was feeling dizzy and wanted to be fresh and clean and be an early bird. I went for a walk after bathing. Before I went for a walk, I took my water bottle and I left for walking.  As soon as I went there for a walk I saw nobody at the park. I was the only one who was alone in the park surrounded by trees everywhere. I went back home after walking almost 15 minutes in the park. After I returned home my mother gave me my breakfast, and said “Pack your bags, because your father decided to go to Pokhara as your birthday is coming near and we will celebrate your birthday at Pokhara.We will leave at 11:00 am today. I was very happy after hearing that I am going to Pokhara today. I was very excited and I ran towards my room and started packing. I couldn’t wait for the moment when I was leaving for Pokhara today. I packed my bag then completed my homeworks for almost one hour twenty five minutes and spent some time at my device. I also went to drink my milk after spending some of the time on the device. Then I went to eat my lunch and after a few minutes I got ready and we left for Pokhara. 


 

We spent time in Pokhara for one week and two days. I went to visit Pokhara for two days and I went to the different temples presented in Pokhara. I didn’t visited pokhara on the third and fourth day because I was tired,and in the fifth day when I was walking I saw everyone in the Bungee jumping area, And I forced my family to take me there and I took permission from my father that I could take a experience of Bungee jumping and my father also gave me a permission to go. So Bungee jumping is the activity of jumping from a great height, while connected to a large elastic cord. The launching pad is usually set up or a tall structure like a bridge or a cliff. Bungee jumping comes under the adventure activity in Nepal. After my father gave me permission for Bungee jumping I was very excited and I went to the destination from where I should jump and I wore an elastic cord. I was very excited. The instructors of the Bungee jumping area were saying are you ready. So I said yes and they left the holder where the elastic cord was attached. I felt like I was flying in between the sky and the ocean. I was very happy, feeling like I was flying after bungee jumping. I went back to my hotel room. I was very tired so I decided to sleep. The other morning, I was not feeling well so I didn’t go anywhere. On the eighth day, I went to visit the Pokhara Zoo and I enjoyed it there. I sat there for a whole day and clicked pictures and visited the zoo. 



 

And on the last day. It was my birthday and I had a grand birthday party celebration at Pokhara. I cut the cakes and I also received precious gifts from my family, friends and relatives. The other day I returned back to my lovely home. I enjoyed a lot in Pokhara and my first experience of bungee jumping was also very interesting. I enjoyed my visit to Pokhara a lot.
