This morning we had breakfast at a little German cafe - coffee and banana porridge. Then we got in the jeep that took us to our whitewater rafting spot. The weather is lovely here in Rishikesh-sunny and in the 70's during the day. So the river was cool, but very nice. The water here is pristine - just down from the Himalayas. The river was pretty calm. There were only two spots of rapids and they were never very rough. We got very wet but there was never any danger of falling out of the raft. Gavin even jumped in the river and swam a little. The trip was about 40 minutes. Then we got out of the raft and walked up the hill to our hotel.
We are having fun looking at all the cows wandering the streets. They are just everywhere. Tonight when we were going down some stairs to a restaurant for dinner there was a cow on the steps! There are also street dogs. They enjoy lying around in the sun. People must feed them because they're not too skinny. There are also monkeys in the trees.
