                                                         MY VACATIONS
Vacations are the best time to relax and enjoy and I eagerly wait for
my summer vacations every year. This year my college closes in the middle of the
month of May and reopens by the end of June. Annual exams get over and the results
are not declared yet.
 After the hard labor for the examinations, I wanted some rest and also some
refreshment. Hence I put aside my books for a few weeks. Next day morning I went out
to play with my friends.
It was a very hot and sunny day so we decided to play indoor games. In the evening
I asked my father and mother to take me to any of the hill stations because I wanted
to beat the heat. My father told me that we cannot go to a hill station because all
the hotels and resorts are booked beforehand only.
It was too hot, the sun was scorching and the wind was deliberating. Fortunately my
uncle had invited my family to Haridwar where he had reached two weeks earlier. Me
and my parents reached Haridwar. My uncle, my aunty and my cousins were all very
excited to see all of us. They welcomed us with a warm heart.
At Haridwar I went to the bank of River Ganga in the morning and it was very pleasant
to see hundreds of men and women bathing in the stream of Ganga and then offering
prayers in the different temples of its “Ghats”.
I requested my uncle to take us to the hilly spots in the vicinity. He was kind enough
to take all of us there. The hill sights of Laxmi jhoola, Swargashram and many other
spots fascinated me. I saw a large number of trees bearing beautiful fruits and flowers.
The peeping of Sun’s rays in the morning and evening was really very charming. The
waterfall at some distances shone like flowing silver in the moonlight. The cool breeze
was always felt. No heat or dust of the plain was felt here. I was very much pleased.
We remained there for two whole weeks. From there my father and my uncle planned to
go on a pilgrimage. We left for Mathura and Vrindavan. There we had darshan of
Dwarkadhish, Rangji, Behariji, and of many other temples.
We then went to Girirajji. We also went to Karoli and Mahaveerji, a place of Jain
pilgrimage. The scenery and views of all these places was beautiful and breathtaking.
We also went to Hemkunt sahib in uttarakhand for taking the blessings of god.
We remained there for ten days .During the way we spent the night at gurudwaras and
ate langars during that time. During that stay we did the shopping and went to many
places. The flora and fauna of that area is very beautiful. The charming atmosphere,
the cold breeze when touches or flows through our body pleased like we are in heaven.        
Me and my family had vey much fun and took the experience that we cannot forgot till
our last time.
Of all the vacations in my life, this was my best summer vacation ever, mainly because
my cousins were also there. We had collected memories for a lifetime. I told my parents
that we will plan similar holidays for every summer vacation, in the coming years.
He firmly nodded to what I said. The vacation was over and I was back to college but
my mind was still remembering the sweet memories of the summer vacation. I will
await the next summer holidays and would love to go on this type of vacation again and
again.
