I have visited velankanni church with my friend , there by  my dream came into true.  After a five hours journey from our campus , we reached there around 2 pm.   we had found  2-3 churches there, by exploiting the knowledge of a security person, we located the exact position of the main church , where the holy mary  sitting.  we prayed there , more than 15 minutes  ,for blessings . After the prayer,  we walked  to the  small churches, located near to the main church. Before planning return journey we spent  around 15 minutes  at velankanni beach.  We got bus at 4.30 from velankanni bus stand .
