a night at the light house  

Posted by ishan khanna

well adventure has its own  magic...as i rushed past towering cliffs of dead rock i could  hear nothing but the  sound of roaring waves and my heart beating about just as fast.

in my little  rowboat i had started on this little journey from  the south coast of india to the andaman and nicobar islands. its a pretty niceplace i have heard and i wanted to add some adventure to my trip. i am very  fond of such little exploits you know.
i have been treking  so many times , then i have swam across waters , driven on  slopy  hill sides and what not.
so as i was saying i started from  tamil nadu and decided to complete the journey that very day. i had my little life jacket on and food supplies in my bag. just as i was starting to feel the fun a deadly storm started up. my heart skipped abeat. but i am a daredevil after all. so i didn't pay attention and just rowed on. generally it is adviced that rowers should find solace in a small rock island or something  when a storm starts up but i decided to row on....the i saw something that made my heart sink to the bottom of my belly.....an enormous.....gigantic wave of a hundred feet was soaring towards me...and i knew i was a gonner.....there was no where to turn to......

i stopped dead and knew this was the end....the wave hit me in a swirl of colour and i knew nothing except a lot of pain and cold wetness  over my body before darkness engulfed me...
