My first Poya Day in Sri Lanka


Poya Day or full moon day, is a public holiday in Sri Lanka and we decided to go to Kogalla for the day. We being housemates Donna and Julia along with Julia's dad Mike and his wife Fiona. We spent an hour and a half in a catamaran on this lake but not the kind of catamaran I had in mind. No men in sailor's suits, no G&T, no romantic music playing in the background - this looked, to me, more like two canoes nailed together. But it was lovely even when the storm started. In my next post I'll tell you what we did when the storms came.
