and the bus from Galle town to my uncle's cost 11p.... whoohoo!!! :)
There's some really weird stuff going on with the weather systems here.
There have been serious floods in the north, theres been a lot of rain too in the south and for the first time in my uncles memory, it was cold. By cold, he means the weather dropped to 18 degrees C on wednesday. Some of my aunts were in sweaters. Anything below 20 o C is cold for Sri Lankans... reminds me of Kavita still wrapped in her shawl when it was 30 oC in Arlington street, saying "Boys im just going to close the window now" ...and the CMAP team shouting "Noooooooo" in unison ... :)
...but when the sun finally came out, 'pinkie' the dog was lapping it up :
...im beginning to think the dogs have an easier life than me....
When the sun came out, reptiles which had been too cold to move were also out hunting. I saw this 'Yellow rat snake' at lunch time hunting mice and squirrels in the front garden...
(these guys are not poisonous)
