Got up at 6, the chores and was ready by a half past 8. Packing was completed and we left the hotel by a 20' past 9 for Thodupuzha, which was just 20 kms away. Enroute, we'd breakfast and reached the venue of the meeting well in time. Met all the participants and the organisers.
The meeting began at a quarter past 11 and we wound up at a half past 1. Aniyan had fetched up from Kidangoor quite early in the morning. So, we were three from the family.
The crowd was enthusiastic and the josh was all pervading. From the interest shown by the participants it was evident that the district will put up a good show!
Had a quick lunch and I'd caught an auto rickshaw to get across to the KSRTC bus stand. Boarded a bus for Ernakulam and from there to Guruvayur. The driver, Xavier, drove really well and wasn't he thrilled when I told him that his driving was good, towards the end of the journey.
Reached home by a quarter to 8 and joined Lekha in snacking and dinner, after a good wash and change.
Tailpiece.
The outing that had begun at the unearthly hour of 3, on the 7th, finally came to an end this evening. Finished the final district of Idukki.
