      Rajenda,

           Our walk started today. It was in the morning at 9 o clock from the Apex part, Caboolture. At the starting there were not too many people but as we made progress, and entered a school, there were a handful of people waiting for us. The school teachers and students interacted with us.Garvin in his speech delighted the students.We talked about Parijat Academy, FASS, Asha darshan etc. Then we walked about 18km upto deception Bay  as per schedule.In between some interaction took place with the public. We also went to the office of the Brisbane Indian Times, Biju was interviewed for a Brisbane FM radio. Earlier I gave an interview to Brisbane FM radio which was brodcasted live.
      Detail report will floow soon.
      Regards
      Jayanta
