Sri Lanka (Part I)

 With the country seemingly falling into termoil again it makes me wonder what the outside world, and more particularly those who have not ventured that far yet, think about the nation. My own adventure there in 2006 (just 2 years after the tsunami) covered no more than 3 weeks but all that was found was Peace, Love, Understanding, Respect and most of all 'Fantastic Wildlife'. Over the next 3 Sundays we hope to bring to our valued audience a snapshot of Birds, Beasts, Way of Life and Sights in equall proportion from our own indelible memories!
