Finally in SL with bloods done and an enforced holiday because tomorrow is Saturday and a local festival.  The journey over was fine but it's been a very hectic few weeks and I'm tired. New and annoying driver which is no different from my daily life but now at home sitting on the terrace smelling stock simmering for tom yam soup tomorrow, listening to the birds and music from the local festival (yet to get annoying) and looking at the water and the newly purchased, in honour of Feb 4, Sri Lankan flags blowing in the wind. Is it me or there are a lot of Sri Lankan festivals?
