A Few Days in Colombo, Sri Lanka

Tim had to go to Colombo, Sri Lanka, on business and had the opportunity to take more than his usual number of pictures, so I'm making a small sub-gallery for them. It looks like a beautiful and interesting island that would be worth exploring in the future.

So sad all that has happened there in the last few days, the more so as the nation had seemed to make peaceful progress in recent years.

What a change in comparison to 1989, when I visited Sri-Lanka.
