The Festival

On my vacation I would travel to India to go to the Nag Panchami -cobra festival. I would journey to India on the fifth day day of bright half of Lunar month of Shravan (July/August, according to the Hindu calendar) and watch the festival. perhaps even catch my own cobra to be in the competition of either  height or weight. It might be intimidating to be around so many venomous creatures, but enthralling at the same time. It seems interesting to see how much people worship snakes in  India and Nepal. The journey would be rough considering that first class on a train there is like a park bench with a cushion but it would be worth it. I might be afraid of snakes, but I would like to overcome this fear.  It seems like an adventure worth going on and I hope one day I can make it real.
