The Picnic

Last Sunday we sent on a picnic at the Rice Canal. We went there on our bikes. We took with us baskets full of fruits, sweets and meal. We set out early in the morning and reached the bank of Rice Canal at about 8:00 am. We placed our things under a shady tree. Some of us began to play badminton, others played cards or chess or ludo. Some boys brought with them cassette players and played popular music. The boys, who knew swimming, took off their clothes and began to swim in the canal. Some boys brought hook and feed for fish. They started fishing. When all of us became tired, we sat under trees for taking rest. After taking some rest we took our meal. After meal our friends prepared tea. We enjoyed it during chit chat. After tea we started poetry and song competition and enjoyed very much. Now it was 4:00 pm we returned home tired but happy.
