We have now left Sri lanka about 2 hours ago and we are motoring towards India.
 
During our stay in Sri Lanka we went on a 5 day tour into the hill country (middle of the island) where we stayed in different places each night.
We went on a Jeep Safari, saw lots of Temples, Visited a tea factory and the highlight was to walk to the top of Sigiriya rock.
We will post some pictures when we get to Indi as we hope to get interconnection there.
 
Where we stayed in Sri Lanka was in the port with the Navy.  quite something to see a soilder with a rifle at the back of the boat when looking out.
We had to get the dinghi to a wall and then climb up some metal stairs, not so easy when wearing a dress.
 
This passage is likely to take 2-3 days and as we did not leave until 1pm it will probably be 3 nights..
more soon..
