Day 1

I start my day 1 with a brief introduction of an  invincible NGO .
An invincible NGO is a non profit government organisation which helps youngsters to find their passion in Adventure.

We all gathered at 10:30 pm  ( Ahmedabad invincible NGO office) & started our journey by bus and reached around 11:00 am at Jaisalmer.

Our first destination was the jesalmar war museum but it was close due to diwali. So we went to take our lunch at the payal hotel.
after that we went to visit bada bagh temple which is a historical temple and a good location for photos.
After spending one hour at bada bagh temple we left for our camp site which is around 45km from Jaisalmer city.

Now let's talk about the invincible jesalmar camp site which is located near sam sand dunes and no other camp located around 5km from our site. After one hour journey from bada bagh temple we reach at our camp site first all tent ⛺ allocated by instructor in group of 4 to 5 and next task is tent set-up.

After completion of all the tasks it's time for our dinner they provide us a veg meal which gives us power in dessert.

The last session of the day is Star ⭐⭐ gazing and play different team games where I learn to take night 🌉 photo of stars .

At around 10:30 the instructor gives us a lights off signal so it's time to sleep 💤💤💤😴

Our second day starts at 6:30 am with some warm up exercise and team games which help in dessert to stay active.
After that around 7:00 am we show unforgettable sunrise 🌅 from dessert we seat in sand to view that moment and take lots of photos.

After that it's breakfast time & then after around 8:00 am we started walking in dessert with our guide. Our track was almost 5 to 6 km with lots of up- down dunes. We reached our destination Meggie point at around 11:00 am . Where we all enjoyed delicious 😋😋 Meggie and riding quad bike. Which is the best and thriller experience for me.

Now it's time to 🐪🐪 camel riding. We all ride camels from Meggie point to our camp site experience of unexplainable I want to say must try it.

After reaching our camp site we leave for kuldhara village & take lunch before we reach our destination.

Kuldhara village is one of the haunted villages and most famous amongst all 80 villages which becomes haunted after some incidents. Personally when I am exploring the city I literally feel negative energy and fully uncomfortable in the city.
Kuldhara is totally covered by the government and no one is allowed after the sun sets in that area.

Khaba fort is also a prime location for 80 villages in ancient time khaba fort was the biggest business hub for trades who come from different countries but now due to some incidents which are connected to kuldhara it has also become haunted place like kuldhara.
We play different games there and spend good 😊 time with the team.

In last we visited sam for great sunset on day of eclipse.

After that evening we returned to our camp site and made a group to collect wood for a campfire 🔥.after dinner we started our campfire 🔥 where we talked about Haunted stories.

So today's day was all about haunted things and we get light off signal from instructor at 11:00 pm .

Day 3

At 6:30 our 3rd day started with great Fogg around us because of the low  visibility sunrise 🌅 is not possible so we play different games with team and also play volleyball 🏐 .

After breakfast it's time to go for Jeep Safari which is the main attraction of jesalmar. Our instructors send us to enjoy that best 30min of our life in dessert. Jeep Safari was one of the best experiences which is permanently print in my memory 😃. So if you're going jesalmar must try it. without jeep safari your trip was worthless.

After that we leave that camp with our greatest memories of life and going to the next destination which is the Shama dessert camp site.

But in between we experience Parasailing. that 5 min view from the sky feels like you are flying like bird 🕊️ and see all things around jesalmar.

At lunch time we reached shama dessert camp first of all we got a tent in groups and then take lunch. after that it's time for relaxation after two days .

In the evening we are going to take photos with our National tricolour flag which tribute to our Indian army which is work without worry about their Life.

After dinner it's time to enjoy great Rajasthani folk dance and garba which absolutely needed for gujrati people.

At 11:00 pm instructor gives us lights off signal
So after some adventures day this day was also completed.

Day 4

This is the last day of our camp and it's the day of exploring the city and enjoying their local food.

First of we take rikshaw from our bus parking spot which suggests us some famous places also they guide us at every place where we visited.

The first place we visited was gadisar lake which is the oldest lake which was built to solve water problems in the Jesalmar desert by that time of king
Also it has a very interesting story which you must listen to from a local guide.

Patwon haveli is a symbol of the Power of Jainism in rajashthan. There are 5 haveli which have the same outer structure.
From that 1st haveli owned by the kothari family of jodhpur. Two haveli owned by the government of India & Two haveli owned by family who built this also they are living here.

Kothari's patwon haveli is a museum so we visited it inside that they have a collection of very old styles of Rajasthani home decoration. If you are interested in it you must visit.

After two visits it's time to have some delicious 😋 breakfast so for that we are going to fate ki kachori which most famous in jesalmar after 30min of waiting we get it to tast.

After that we went into the fort for the city view point but here  I will suggest that if you want to enjoy the city view point free of cost go to the canon view point where we take rest 15 min and enjoy view of jesalmar from above.

Jaisalmer war museum was the last place which we visited during our trip which feels us as pride of our nation.

It shows stories of different wars where our soldiers take part and get the greatest win in front of our enemy. Also it has all weapons which are used by our army.
One of the proud moments when I saw all that thing.

After completing it we leave for Ahmedabad with making new family of friends and take precious memories which are not faded by the time.
