Hello Friends,
The day is almost here. I would be taking off on Saturday, 26th April at 9:00AM from Madivala Lake. The co-ordinates are 12.908700, 77.614846

It will be a very informal ceremony. I will request you all to make it to the event to the extent possible. Please note that I need to leave exactly at 9:00AM just to reach Pondicherry in time for the first community interaction scheduled at around 17:00hrs.
In any case - here are the few words for people (Sripad and Lokesh) who started planning with me for the trip and for some or the other reasons will not be able to join me on this trip - I will surely miss you all. Without your ideas and support, I would have not thought of doing it.
Thanks to Ashwini Manjunath, Anand Alur, Nandini, Padmini, Ashok, Somashekhar, Lakshmi, Tulasi, Ranganath and many others who helped me get the right gear required for the trip.
Special thanks to Prashanth Pillai, Navroze Contractor, Raghavendra P and Srivatsa for the last minute help and support and to Santosh and Manju Moms for continuous encouragement.
I will be available on this BSNL number - +91 9480447094 . Leave a message. I will call you people back. I would be accessing internet intermittently. You can also leave a message with Manikeswari at my office on +91 - 080 - 41698941. She will convey the message the moment I am on network.
You can follow me on twitter - http://twitter.com/sharadaprasad . I will be updating my lat-long almost every two hours (you need to paste them into Google Maps search box to get my latest location). Depending upon the internet connection, I would be updating blogs, GPS tracks and photographs on https://www.indiawaterportal.org/k2k/ Please follow my ride there and leave your comments.
I am deeply indebted to Arghyam for the financial and logistic support and to its partners and friends for helping me with community interaction.
I will keep you guys posted.
So long, my friends.
Regards,
Sharada
