We'd kicked off by about 8 o'clock to Vembayam. Had told everyone last night that the yatra would resume at 0830 hrs this morning. Had wanted everyone to finish his breakfast by a half past 8, which was arranged by the Karakulam panchayat along with the night halt arrangements for the entire team. However, there were a couple of drivers who'd to fund their own breakfast.
Taking a tough stance right in the beginning was to convey the need to maintain punctuality and a sense of discipline. It was clearly conveyed that no nonsense would be brooked on this score!
The following panchayats were passed through today, the last of the ones in Thiruvananthapuram district:-
(a) Vembayam.
(b) Nellanad.
(c) Vamanapuram.
(d) Kilimanoor and
(e) Pazhaya Kunnummel.
Being a Sunday, weddings, other programmes and festivities hampered our interaction with the audiences, in that, the strengths were abysmally low. But the juggernaut rolled on. We wound up, at the Pazhaya Kunnummel private bus stand with the street play, by about a half past 6.
The team's night halt and tomorrow's breakfast have been organised by the panchayat. We will roll on to Nilamel - and Kollam district - by a half past 8, tomorrow morning.
Tailpiece.
My sinus has been nasty and keeps me busy. The consequent tiredness and discomfort have been worrying.
