Galle

After a couple days in Colombo (the heat! the walking! the security checkpoints!), we've landed in the much more laidback Galle and its old Dutch Fort. So many incredibly beautiful old bungalow-like houses, which miraculously haven't all been changed into boutiques, or boutique hotels, or boutique restaurants. We are staying in one of the old houses that have been changed into a boutique hotel. It's very nice, and I'm loving the swimming pool. Tomorrow we head south a couple kilometers to visit the wonderfully named Unawatuna, a beach-lover's paradise, as the papers in India would say. More later.
