Sri Lanka

As seen with my eyes

Folklore
We are accustomed to use our eyes only with the memory of what other people
before us have thought about the object we are looking at.

Author: Guy de Maupassant


After a 10 hour fight Zurich Colombo we arrived at an ungodly hour in the morning 3:30.
Still dazed from our flight we found our way to our tour bus which to us on an amazing journey through Sri Lanka.

Sri Lanka revisited

After a wonderful holiday in January
we decided to return in May/June. Although it was the monsoon season we still enjoyed every moment. The frequent heavy rainfalls did not deter us but he high humidity was a bit difficult to cope with. We stayed at the same hotel Neptune in Beruwela and we really felt as if we had come home again. We renewed friendships and made new friends.
