SUBSTITUTE the word "nice" in the given passage with a more apt (suitable) word.
On the occasion of getting a new contract, the management has given us a nice1 treat. They took us to a nice2 location in Kerala. The local tour conductor received us and took us to a star hotel. The sceneries in the mountains were nice3. Luckily, we could watch the nice4 annual snake boat race.
We were taken to nice5 tea estates in Thekkady and Munnar route. The valley view was nice6. We tasted the local food, but most of the preparations, including the sweets, were with coconut oil! We were served boiled rice. That was not nice7.
The next day, we were taken on a cruise in the nice8 backwaters of Alleppey, from Fort Kochi and travelled through the famous inland waterways of Kerala by a traditional houseboat. The night we spent there was very nice9. The brightly shining stars gave us a canopy (like an umbrella) as we lied on the upper deck of our houseboat. Our colleague, Kalyani sang nice10 songs and added extra thrill to the nice11 experience.
The next day, we visited Periyar lake and did some boating and watched wild elephants around. They were nice12 and not chased us. We visited spice gardens and bought some fresh cardamom (యాలకులు) and cloves (లవంగాలు). They were fresh and nice13.
Sadly, we were on the train in the evening. Uhh.... all nice14 things should end too. But we carry the memories and nice15 photos with us.
