Sancharam 2010-2011



It all started in the early morning. After the restless sleep. We reported at the school at 6 am and started off at 6:30. We travelled in a small bus with less-comfortable seatings, no-sound systems and no AC, that's what annoyed us the most while the bigger bus had all these.
We stopped at Trichur after a dizze-travel and had our breakfast. The puri and the vada was was very oily for a breakfast, but fortunately we survived the breakfast! We played a lot inside the bus until we knew that we were heading to the Hill palace of cochi 'raga'. Such a boring place we were like slaves, because we had to climb up a tremendous 114 steps to the palace barefoot! And the amazing thing it that there was CCTV cameras inside the palace that was used by kings in the 18th century, Just Kidding!!
After all the running we got very exhausted. And had to head back to the bus. Anyways, our teachers told us that we were heading to the ship cruise and is going to eat lunch there.
Within half-an-hour we reached there. We walked a few metres and there it was. But unfortunately we had to wait there for a long time cause the ship was being cleaned. After a long wait we got inside we sat in the upper deck. We had our lunch while the ship's crew told us the history of the cochin harbour. After lunch, we danced and sang all three-hours. Then we went to the AC-deck to see the dolphins and to see the ships. After much resting, we saw the harbour nearing. That was done!! The third visit was to the Oberon mall. We were given 1½ hours for spending inside the mall*, we just hurried to the scary house at the top. We had goosebumps even to decide whether to go for it, But I did. We went inside as 12. So I was scared a bit because of the narrow passage and the scary pushing and pulling of my friends. Somebody would get lost if this happened. Even now, I just don't remember how I skimmed* out of the house. Howling with my friends. After that, we went to the mirror maze and then to Rel-time out, but the time was out.* We had to go back to our stay at star homes. There we saw a magic show. And then to our rooms after dinner. It was like, no lights and 7 floors. But we made it to the summit. We slept and had to wake up early at 7 for Veegaland. We really enjoyed it there and we were the last to make it up to the bus, cause we enjoyed it*.
We reached school at 1 am and we left for our home.
A one in a million trip.
