Vaayana Dinam (8).

The Mangalore Express reached Kanhangad on the dot at a half past 7. Sukumaran maash was at the railway station to pick us up, with his own car. Earlier Karayil Sukumar - our Kannur co-ordinator - boarded the train from Payyannur to give us company.

We went off at a half past 10 to the Dr PK Rajan University for the 1st session. Finished by about lunchtime and we’d our lunch at the university’s canteen.

We, then called on the wife of ex-MLA, KP Ku6,njikkannan who’d passed into the mist of time last September. Could spend about a half hour with her before kicking off to the freedom fighter Keshav ji Memorial Library at Perkalai. 

It was a nice session with the children and the elders which was jam packed.

We spent the night at the PWD Rest House at Kanhangad and will kick off by train, to Kannur, by 8 tomorrow morning.

A wet day at Kanhangad!
