Tuesday 6th August
We left Colombo for the drive south to Galle.
Once there, we wandered around the old Dutch quarter, where amongst other things, I came across an elderly craftsman who makes and sells toy boats.
We also found the snake charmer who dances with a cobra, and will, for a fee, let you have your photograph taken with a python draped around your neck.
In the evening, we drove out to the Japanese Peace Pogoda, which sits high on a hill overlooking the town of Galle, in the hopes of a half-decent sunset. Sadly, cloud on the horizon conspired against me. Ce la vie.
