A Journey by Boat I Made Essay

A pleasant journey is always enjoyable to us. A journey by boat is specially very pleasant and enjoyable to me. During the last autumn vacation one of my friends requested me to attend his sister’s marriage ceremony at Narayangonj. So I got an opportunity to make a journey by boat.

We were six in number. On the fixed date we reached Sadarghat launch ghat at 7 a.m. We hired a fine boat. We started our journey from Sadarghat ghat at 8 am. There were two boatmen. The sky was clear. The river was calm and full to the brim. At first the boatmen plied the boat with oars. When the wind was favourable they set sail. Soon the boat began to move fast. There were ripples. The boatmen were singing.

We enjoyed the scenery of the river. We saw many boats big and small plying up and down. We saw some steamers and motor launches plying through the river. Fishermen were cathcing fishes in the river. Boys and girls were found 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 2 pm we reached the Narayangonj ghat of my friend’s house. My friend was very glad seeing us. He received us with open arms.

Finally it can be stated that the journey gave me much pleasure. It was the most pleasant journey in my life. I enjoyed it so much that the memory of the journey will remain ever fresh in my heart.
