Final Posting In Country

I'm finally headed back home late tonight after rattling through trains, buses and tuk-tuks to Kandy and the Temple of the Sacred Tooth (including a poya day procession), the Dambulla caves, Sigiriya Rock and back to Colombo for a Pimm's Cup on the Verandah Bar at the Galle Face Hotel and a lightning fast round on the links at the Royal Colombo Golf Club. There's an amazing number of places to see in a short span of time. As seemingly cliche as their marketing slogan may be, Sri Lanka truly is a land like no other. Pics to come (when I'm not paying rupees per minute).
