BARBIES AND BUDDHAS ELLA TOWN SRI LANKA
Ella is building guesthouses like crazy. We took an early morning walk to the Buddhist Temple to see what all the chanting was about. Turns out, there were three monks out front and the chanting from coming from a recording blaring over the loudspeakers – a cassette tape recording. Not so cool, but we did see another black dog and white dog again acting as greeters for the Temple. We ate a breakfast of bread, jelly and tea – one less meal I have to worry about. Fresh pineapples and papayas too. Yum. We walked around the neighborhood through all the under construction guesthouses – just waiting for the tourist way to arrive and I am sure the wave will come. We are loving our guesthouse. Mr. Nelson guided us on a walk this afternoon to see the nine-arches railway bridge. Quite a site and such a short distance from our guesthouse. However, both Ezra and Viena were walking like they were 2-years-old. Mr Nelson was so patience with the pace that they dictated. A normal 45 minute walk took almost 2 hours.I had my foot looked at by a health professional for the boogie board wound that is not healing.$5 for the visit plus oral antibiotics. I am packing for tomorrows adventure up Ella Rock. I am not really feeling great with my foot and really all my left leg feeling all sorts of pain. Hopefully, a hike up Ella Rock is just what I need.
