En Route

The best way to explore Ceylon is by train. We chug along aboard a small steam engine, making pit stops in various small towns, districts and tourist attractions; Trincomalee, Kandy, Anuradhapura, Wilpattu National Park. 

Stories of the ridiculous intoxicated shenanigans my father pulled during his days in the CLI (Ceylon Light Infantry) were relished with spicy dhal patties and coconut served through the train window along the way. 

























Trincomalee was explored by foot as locals with the city buzzing around us.
A street dog barks at an oncoming bus, informing it to go around its home in the middle of the road.
























Street sweets were enjoyed rooftop style with a picturesque view quite ordinary  in Kandy.













































Tuk-tuks were taken to temples in Anuradhapura
