Rafting the Nile

Published by Annie Brown on Monday, April 2, 2007 at 8:34 AM

Ripped from the raft, thrown into the air, and submerged under roaring white water until you cannot stand it any longer…this wraps up our Nile River rafting trip. Saturday, Annie, Mom, Dad, and I took on what many people consider the most difficult rapids in the world. Class five rapids are the most difficult rapids that can be rafted and survived. We paddled into the center of every rapid, and only flipped four times. To say the least it was a full day of heart pounding adventure.

    Four times, huh? we must be better rafters -- we only flipped once ;) Wish I could've rafted it with you, but I will again one day. Next time I think I'll walk around "the bad place", though. I only need my life to flash in front of my eyes once.
