During the last autumn vacation my father asked me to go to
my sister’s house at sonargaon 20 miles away from our house. So I got a chance
to make a journey by boat.
At about 4 pm we reached the ghat of my sister’s house. My
sister was very glad to see us. She received us cordially. Thus our journey
came to an end.
We hired a fine boat. We started our journey from Homna
gahat at 10 am. There were two boatmen.
The sky was clear. The river was calm and full to the brim.
At first the boatman plied the boat with oars. When the wind was favorable,
then they set sail. Soon the boat began to move fast.
We enjoyed the scenery of the river. Fishermen were catching
fish in the river. Boys and girls were swimming. Women were going home with
jars filled with water. There were green fields on both sides of the river.
Cattle were grazing there.
At about 4 pm we reached the ghat of my sister’s house. My
sister was very glad to see us. She received us cordially. Thus our journey
came to an end.
This was our first journey by boat. It was thrilling. It
will remain as an ever fresh experience in my mind.
It was the memory in my life. I enjoyed it so much that the
memory of the journey will remain ever fresh in my heart.
