What is the measure of a good time? For most, it is that fleeting feeling when time slips by so quickly, you hardly even notice. And for SEQC, the 10th of August 2025 was exactly that kind of day. After too many polls, vehicle plannings and pit stop discussions, we finally made our way to the Rishivan farms in Rivona, with a pit stop at Usgalimal. Following is a broad outline of this day filled with camaraderie, laughter and of course quizzing!
The day started early at 8.45 AM at the meeting spot in Panjim. With a gentle drizzle and overcast skies, it was the perfect weather for a road trip. On the way, Mayur started things with a quick road trip themed set followed by yours truly. But the true highlight of this leg of the journey was a soulful English/Konkani song that Rajiv taught us (the next generation supposedly) —one that extolled the virtues of soldiers heading to war for their country. It brought tears to our eyes.
Our driver, Sunil bab, made
excellent time, and soon we were pulling into Shervin’s in
Nuvem for a delicious breakfast—crispy samosas, rissois, and
piping hot chai. Next door, the Madre Dos Pobres Church was
alive with Sunday devotions, and we could not help but wonder if we
were about to eat the congregation’s share of the post liturgical
feast too! After stocking up on sodas and mixers at the
nearby Bagayatdar, spirits were high, and tummies were full and
the road beckoned—we were officially on our way!
