So I’m in the Internet café, just finished my blog about how pants I am at blogging, and how sorry I am. Wrote a ridiculously long blog about everything that’s happened, just got to the end, finished, and then……. Of course the computer switches itself off. Course it does. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
The general gist was we have finished the project now and are on our travels. It was all a bit disorganized but we still felt we achieved quite a lot and my photography project went really well. Will do my best to get some of the girls pictures up on here when I get home.
Have just arrived in Colombo after a few days in our favorite place in Sri Lanka – Ella. A beautiful sleepy little village in the hills with a bunch of guesthouses and restaurants, a waterfall, and a small hill which we like to climb (more like pootle) up.
Stayed at the Little Folly, a guesthouse we adored last year, owned by Mr Gunisiri and his lovely family. Mr Gunisiri is a legend. Along with renaming Charlotte Violet for the majority of our trip, he did everything he could do and more to help us, finally arranging us seats in the observation carriage of the train to Colombo we caught today. This is amazing because it’s something we’ve always wanted to do but never been able to as you have to book tickets ten days in advance. The carriage has panoramic views of the hill country from the back of the train, absolutely stunning!
Tomorrow we go back to Dharma Chakkra, the Boys home we lived in all last year. We are both silly excited about the whole thing. It’s one of the main reasons we’ve come back. So on that note we best go prepare ourselves.
I wish I could tell you all that was lost in my first blog, I’m sure you would have been amazed and enthralled. Thanks a bunch Lotus Communication. Thanks a bunch!
