I WENT TO SRI LANKA :D



i love Kandy :D and i wanna go back again.

so the main purpose of this trip was to see this Buddha tooth relic. lucky enough, the exposition was supposed to last till Tuesday but it closed on Saturday evening and we went to see it on Saturday morning without queuing the long queue which i think, will last for few days. i seriously pity those people who queued for days and still cant see the tooth relic. under the scorching hot sun, no food, no water.. stuck in the line, no where to go but frontwards. worst, it ended earlier. count myself lucky (:
-no pictures for this. tight security and no cameras allowed.

we went to the mountains on Sunday. beautiful sight, but the ride was really long. 2-3 hour bumpy ride. compare 3 years ago, i think the road is better. in their slang, very well carpeted. it was very cold, plus the rain, freezing.
