To Kozhikode and beyond to Vythiri.


Had got up at a half past 5 and then wondered as to whether I’d taken a wrong decision – this thought persisted till we reached Yedu’s immaculate Edathil Gardens – to get up half an hour late! Went through the chores and we were on the highway by a half past 7. The early morning traffic was comparatively easy as George stepped on the gas, with a gay abandon, as the 10 o’clock deadline was given to him.

Parrat, a close friend, had given a surprise call and the chat had gone on. A snatch of breakfast from a wayside hotel – it was a tasteless one, to say the least but this is what happens when one has vegetarian stuff! We reached Edathil Gardens at the appropriate time and could sent back George almost, immediately.

Meeting both the mothers – Yedu’s and Raji’s – was like a soothing balm. The tempo traveller, finally arrived and we’re off to Vythiri by about 11 AM. We reached the Adithya Nature Resort by a half past 1, got a traditional welcome while it was pouring. After registration and the allocation of rooms – ours was 210, along with Suresh and Sindhu. Each bungalow had staying places for two couples amid the greens – it was time to have fun with one’s classmates. An extended lunch with catching up time and we went into our suites for a short siesta.

The evening saw more of interaction, further exchange of ideas but was comparatively early. I’d initiated the proceedings with a prayer for our departed friends.
