Fun activities and happy experiences

Had an enjoyable half-day over at Bamboo Experience. Timely pick-up and we were transported to a tranquil estate of greenery. Good introduction of various bamboo tools and usage. Along with hands on experience of various activities. Ended the session with bamboo dishes inspired lunch.
