More of the beach kids in Galle

I hate photos of myself, but Sarah (link to her incredibly neglected blog here) kindly sent me a photo from our time in Sri Lanka which I thought was pretty cool (the cool bit is not me  - I still look like a donkey).

Sarah was with me when I took this photo in Galle:

...and while I was showing the kids the photos of themselves on the LCD screen, she took this photo:

Thanks Sarah!

More Sri Lankan randomness

Sarah on the beach - this was just before we took photos of the Sri Lankan kids jumping in the sunset

A frog (Sinhalese: "gemba") on the wall of one of the restaurants we went to in Galle

More elephant bathing action from Pinnewela.  Those two brown lumps at the top are indeed what you think they are.

Tell me if you're sick of the holiday photos

Stark raving mad dude jumping off a structure at the Galle Fort  (we gave him about US$10 to get this photo). He came over and looked at the LCD preview after I took the photo and said "I'm like a bird!"

George exchanging flowers with Wijey (one of the villa staff in Galle).  The flowers were a gorgeous pink, but I struggled to get the colours right when I was editing this - so I went black and white. I'll try again over the weekend. The photo might look a little soft - it wasn't anything I did to the photo... unfortunately the lens was coated in condensation (the camera had been sitting in an air conditioned room and it was 38 degrees Celsius outside)

Gorgeous little Penny at Sigiriya

One of the many curry dinners we had on the trip.  I ate the equivalent of my bodyweight in poppadoms.

The whole team at the beach in Galle (before anyone asks, George was looking away in every photo I took)
