Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi

 We managed to visit the ancient bodhi tree in Anuradhapura on a festival day, which was a sight to see!

Polonnaruwa

A sweaty but fun exploration by bike of this long-ago Sri Lankan capitol. 

Dambulla Cave Temple

 

Minneriya

 

Sigiriya

 

Riding the Lankan rails

 Such a joy!

Badulla

 It’s the end of the highlands train line and was totally worth a stop!

Dunhinda Falls

 So many stairs, but still worth it!

Ella

 Perfect weather, perfect views, perfect mountain town!

Nuwara Eliya

 Even in Sri Lanka, 6,000 feet of elevation cools you down real good!

Kandy

 

Kurunegala

 

Beach bliss in Negombo

 

Back in the bustle of Colombo

 Even aside from getting to see the friends I made when I first arrived, I really enjoy this city!

Delft Island

 If I ever make it back to this particular corner of the world, I’d like to spend a night or two out on Delft. It was an interesting daytrip, but I’d love to see it in the magic light of sunset.
