Good times

Was cleaning up some folders on my computer and I came across some old photos, old like in just over an year ago, so not that old.

In a temple in Rajangane (Damn! can't remember its name), up on the rock is the earliest known map of Sri Lanka carved in stone.
The temple is being run by a Buddhist monk who used to teach me when I was in Sunday school (and he was in Colombo for his studies). Very rough life, but admirable!




Thanthirimale.
Not the most convenient place for a living, but for those people and monks who opt to stay here helping each other out through all hardships is very touching to see.



Ramya Uncle (who took the photo) insisted on stopping the van and reversing it, to get a few photos of these fellows.


On the steps of the "Biso Maligawa" in Anuradhapura.


And on the way home, we had a good climb at the Rosa thirivana mountain in Namal Uyana as well.
