In Sri Lanka very hot and sunny, our tour took us on a sightseeing trip of Colombo the capital and we were lucky is today is a very religious holiday, and we went to the most religious sites in Shi Lanka and we were treated to thousands of Buddhists all dressed in white praying and chanting their mantra's, we felt honoured to be able to witness this memorable sight. This place is nearly all Buddhist and have very strong religious beliefs. One of which is before a baby has reached 3 months old they must eat a peace of gold, I wasn't sure why. The Chinese are gradually buying the planet, every place we have been they have purchased massive swathes of land in prime areas and building huge new city's, watch out world. They have great beaches here and some are in the best 10 in the world. We went again to see their traditional shows music and dance, altogether a great visit. Tomorrow another day at sea.
