Hi all
Not much to reprt about Thursday. We all spent the day on or around the beach at Arugumbay. This fabulous beach is on the lower SE coast of AriLanka and is famed for the wonderful surfing. In fact, the Sri Lanka surfing championships are held here.
The team had a tough time dealing with it..

The downside, and isn't there always one, was the hotel. As the beach is haunted by penniiless surfers, there is limited demand for decent hotels of a decent size. We were billeted in the Hotel Tristar and all can say is, don't get yourself in the same position. Poor rooms, poor service, poor us. And, to rub salt in the wound, they weren't serving alcohol as the hotel is owned by a devout Muslim who was observing Ramadan! You could bring in your own booze, but finding little local bar became the main sport. Typical.
I had to interrupt my blogging to take the picture as well1! They said something about earning my keep - huh
Lovely scene over the beach in the morning, though.
