My first white water rafting experience!! 
Overall it was AWESOME, albeit in the beginning of the activity, it was quite slow and boring.
We went to Lotus which is about 3 hrs from our place. If you think this is far, I met ppl who who drove from San Diego, which is about 8 hrs away just for this activity!
Saw these Llamas(I think) on the way to Lotus. Aren’t they adorable? The lady saw us taking pics of them, and asked us to go over so that we can touch the llamas. So nice of her. The one on the left is about 2 yrs old and she is quite shy. She felt uncomfortable of our presence and kept moving behind her owner. I think that she is really pretty and managed to stoke her neck (that was what the owner asked us to do) Really made my day! The day started on a positive note… Felt really happy.
This was my itenerary:
Meet time: Mid- to late morning, Coloma
Hour One: Sign-in, instruction
Hour Two: Class II warm-up rapids
Hour Three: Riverside lunch
Hour Four-Six: Class III rapids, “The Gorge”
Hour Seven: Take-out in Folsom Lake, bus ride
Hmm, it was just one hour at the warm-up rapids. Felt reaaaaaally long! Should have gone to the class III/IV instead, but we didn’t know it was so calm.
I do not have any pics with us on the raft to post because the $75 CD that we bought is blank! OH BOY!

These few days, I have been watching too much drama for my liking! Tmr, I must work! We plan to go for Independance Day parade/event today, but since I watched drama until 6 am (yes, I am addicted), I woke up at 2 pm and it was too late for the event.

Edit: Got the pics! Below are some of them:
Didn’t know that pics were being shot, thus looking down.
Knew that pics were being taken, thus everyone was posing for the camera.
Hopefully, he did manage to jump. He waited because he was going off the next day, and the company would not give any refund. The lesson learnt was that it is better go early so that you won’t be delayed.
