There were three highlights over the course of four days. The first, of course, was the Galle Face Hotel - on the ocean front. The ocean - it never tires. I have decided that the sound of waves is among my top five favourite sounds. I could see the water out of my hotel room.
The second - meeting my old friend, Sanjiv, his fiancee and fantastic group of friends - especially Saturday night dinner at Rehan's place, his dad is the famous cricket commentator, Ranjit Fernandes. I walked into his fabulous house and said hello to a TV personality in his PJs. The third - finding the perfect pair of Kenneth Cole boots for a whopping bargain!
These pictures are all au naturale - unedited and untouched (I say that for the sake of a couple of the pictures, where the colourful beauty of the evening sky was captured by a certain talented photographer ;)
I've discovered a penchant for Chilean wines. Black Cat.
Security was tight around the city. We were right next to the US Embassy, the soldier on the parapet was keeping a tight watch on me... taking a picture of him, just for kicks.
