This is my favourite part of Colombo Airport : )

For a small island, Sri Lanka has many nicknames: Serendib, Ceylon, Teardrop of India, Resplendent Isle, Island of Dharma, Pearl of the Orient. This colourful collection reveals its richness and beauty, and the intensity of the affection it evokes in its visitors.

The beach thing may be a cliche, but don't miss them. Then head to the hills to cool off amidst tea plantations and ancient cities. The island teems with bird life, and even the occasional elephant or leopard. To top it all off, the people are friendly, the food is delicious and costs are low.

Train did not work from the day we arrived in Sri Lanka because of strike.

Finally it started to work on our 4th day in Sri Lanka.

We were very excited to be finally on the train.

Saying goodbye to mummy or daddy. She probably won't see him/her again for 3 years.

It wasn't an easy shot to take without intruding on their palpable sadness or attracting a tap on the shoulder.
