Nirvana Adventures – End of paragliding season party at Shelar 09 May

Gonshu Bai looks out for pg pilots at Shelar

The world famous Nirvana Adventures – end of season party at Shelar site was a rocking success. We upped the ante at this year’s party by organising electrity and music at the site. Shelar Mama’s house was the prefered location as usual and the party started after some of us hiked up to the shrine of Gonshu bai offered her thanks for watching over us all through the season and urging her to bless this idyllac area with a good monsoon and consequently a good rice crop.

It was a meeting of the old wise men and children at the shelar site and Nirvana pilots, students and friends. A great big cookout supervised by the veterans, and some rocking music and refreshments  kept us dancing and having fun.

And then once more it was time to walk back througt the fields illuminated by the moonlight and back to Native Place where the party continued with pilots in the dipping pool highlighted by an illumination of fireflies as you can see from the picture above. Another successful paragliding festival at Kamshet.
