We had a wonderful camping trip to Millerton Lake, which is about 20 miles north of Fresno. Sun was hot. So what? The water was cool. Kids enjoyed the trip more than anybody. It was a co-incidence that we had two pairs of twins - Aditi and Ananya, and Tejas and Varchas - attending the camp. The pictures tell the happy story of the trip.

What are we waiting for? Time to eat water melon

On the way to the lake

The lake is still at a distance

Wow! What a clean water! Can't wait to dive

Folks getting busy on the shore

Everybody enjoying the cool fresh watter

Still in the water. Are we not done, yet?

Aditi and Ananya, but who is who?

Tejas and Shreyas having fun with the mud

"Daddy! This pant is too big for me. It is brother's pant!"

Charu and Neha

Nobody wants to come out of water

Prisha watches her seniors while they perform water antics

Who pitched the tent first?

Good job, Neha and Charu!

Folks, it is getting dark. Time to light the fire.

Now it is the men's turn, but they cannot get the rhythm

Come on, guys! You need to synchronize

How about a game of cricket?
