Back at The Quarterdeck!

Was on the road, speeding towards Guruvayoor, with Biju behind the wheel. He's a good driver and of course because he's a driver in the state road transport road corporation and currently, does his duty on the Kayankulam - Punalur road. 

It was nice to see the churches and the associated buildings with a fresh slap of paint and adorned with good-looking lights and buntings. The traffic was heavy and I realised that the crowd was headed for their homes for the long weekend. The streets and the dwelling units were brightly lit up! The roads were teeming with people and the villages and towns were all agog with excitement, despite the late hour and the prevalent restrictions courtesy, the Omicron.

We reached Thrissur by a half past 1. Navigated through the areas with ease, and got onto the Guruvayoor - Kunnamkulam road - our last leg of the journey and reached The Quarterdeck by a quarter past 2 and made a note of the  time as it was the 'latest time of arrival' for us, after a journey. Upon hearing our car, Kittu arrived at the scene and made noises to register his glee at having us back. He left only after having eaten the fish-and-bread-combination made by Lekha, that he's fond of!

The unpacking was left for tomorrow morning and it was by a quarter to 3 that we hit the sack but was up at 5, to see off Biju and the car!

The day began at a busy schedule with unpacking, opening up of the house and the soiled clothes were pulled out from mine and Lekha's bags and suitcases and put into the washing machine. Thus, had breakfast before bath so that, I didn't delay Lekha.

Another of those quiet days.

Tailpiece.

Helped Lekha water the plants and the vegetable garden, in the evening.
