Sri Lanka...The land of all things spectacular and beautiful

If that's not the official tourist slogan, it damn well should be. What a truly amazing country.

I'm not going to waste your time with words. Hopefully pictures do the talking.

Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage



City of Polonnaruwa






Wild elephant

Fortress of Sigiriya, "The Lion Rock" Read about this amazing fortress here. And yes, I lugged my fat butt up to the top of that beast.





Dambulla Cave Temple




How's that for a view?



The flat mountain in the distance is called "Bible Mountain" because apparently Portuguese settlers left bible on top of it. 
Nuwara Eliya. These are tea fields. Picked by hand. There are thousands of acres of them and they are fantastic to look at.

Capital city of Colombo.
