After a long search we have been lucky and met several elephant groups!
Even in the mud wallowing buffalo and a proud eagle crossed our way.
Mission elephants fulfilled!

In the very center of Sri Lanka (how did they measure that?) a small but fine temple was built, surrounded by a small park. Very nice!

There is the Storefield Tea factory on the route that we visited. We really enjoyed the short but interesting tour of this small, old factory. The subsequent tasting was a nice experience!

A wonderful vibrant - and still very british city - there is something going on! The postal-office is a very old colonialbuilding, which has built up in 1894 and still in operation.

A pretty little town in the mountains, although it is also touristy. Nice atmosphere with many good restaurants.
Here we also get to know Hakira and Thomas from Vienna!
