Camp life in a lap of nature

Life and its routine is fast and monotonous. Every one should opt a break from his/her routine schedule. The break should be planned at different place like if you live near sea shore, you should go the place where sea is not in sight. I lived in a plateau region living between work and family. Its urbanization which makes us busy with traffic, pressure of work and maintaining lifestyle. 

The winter is about to finish and summer is about to come. It's like a green, lavish spring type season here in India. I have decided to travel in mountain region and try something new. May be a change in environment and climate would work I guess... 
India is a vast country with lots of variations in climate, locations and cultures. One may get a break to witness mountain,  sea shores, historical parks, temples etc etc. You can say lots of options to plan and explore with India.
I have decided to go towards north, in the lap of mountains and a lifestyle on the bank of river. When you think about it, you visualize rising sun somewhere behind mountain,  noisy river raised down from mountain, a rural lifestyle where getting comfortable is actually needs efforts.  With these wishes, I went to Rishikesh,  Uttarakhand. Yes sounds like pilgrim but at the same time its adventurous. 
A pre booked campaign in spring like season in mountain.... actually excits from inside. On top breezy, cloudy and rainy weather is like ice cream on a cup cake. Near about sunset, I reached the venue. Venue consists of old fashion homes in tent, an huge garden and outreach washrooms. Just wow to lavish greenery & companions who are part of this exciting trip. 
We have allotted our tents and served some snacks with tea. Caffeine is much needed in such climate after a long journey. It's going to be darker and in lights soothing and beautiful evening. When shower turned to rain, it becomes little tough but wonderful experience.  We spent time together as night progress and we enjoy games, climate and last the food. Best is still to come.
First experience in tent and mountain range is still exciting but somewhere deeply I realised fear of flies, mosquitos,  reptiles although it's just fear. We went to sleep with some amazing memories of evening but as I woke up.... a heart warming view was infront of me. Yes nature at it's best. Actually we got a chance to see entire view in morning. We were surrounded by green lavish huge mountains and a noisy river behing our camp area. Morning could be so beautiful we cant even imagine in night. At this point enjoying and experiencing the view and nature is like refreshing in lap of mother (nature). Time is like paused for sometime and sun rays changing colors of mountain. Peace is what refreshes you and your soul with these views and what more can be expected in traveling to the heaven of earth. Heaven is the place when you forget all your worries, routines , work and just lost to the beauty of nature. Even a lost internet and phone calls added more time to be hugged by nature. We wish to continue our pause but need to explore more creations of God.
Our journey continues to some adventures but still at hills in the lap of nature.
