Ita??s not long since our last post, but I realised after speaking to my sister last night and listening to her laugh that you might appreciate some photographic evidence of our local frog problem. As Stu described in his last post, we have been arguing with a large local family of frogs about whether or not squatters rights apply in Sri Lanka. We are fairly insistent that they move on, but they clearly felt that theya??ve been here for a while (the house has been empty for at least 3 months) and have been strongly resisting any attempts to move them on.
After having turfed the whole family out once already by shooing them out through the front door only for them to re-emerge through one of the open windows hours later, we decided that something a little more drastic was needed. Continue reading ‘Frogs in a bag @ Arugam Bay’

The surfers of Arugam Bay, Inderal generic names members of the Where can i buy accutane uk Arugam Bay Surf Club, have managed to fund a project where they took the initiative and made and erected signs for their beach. Since the end of the civil war, back in May 2009, the beach in Arugam Bay has seen countless more visitors, and with it, rubbish!
The young surfers are very much aware of the importance of protecting their natural playground. The sea and beach is not just a playground though, its a way of life, its where they fish to earn the money to support their families.
So with the help of travelling surfers and Paddle4Relief, the boys raised enough money to purchase materials to make four signs. The local surfers were concerned Continue reading ‘Arugam Bay Beach Litter signs!’

Pleasantly surprising Country Vacation Srilanka
Exotic location like Srilanka is a complete fun for planning your vacation, but not unless you feel at home. With an absolute desire to enjoy this lovely island, I asked them to plan a random vacation for me, just like a blind date. I swear this turned out to be a great idea indeed and Country Vacation Srilanka didna??t disappoint.
My Country Vacation membership was equally valid for Country Vacation Srilanka package as well and I was able to enjoy all Country Vacation membership privileges, even in Srilanka. It started not with beaches but Sinharaja forest, which is considered to be one of the affluent reserves in terms of flora and fauna.
I was amazed to observe this large variety of species here, and it was then that I realized why people called it a virgin forest. The motive was now clearly visible for me. They had planned to show me an island which Marco Polo considered finest on earth.
This was just the beginning, as the next spot was again a virgin beach, at Arugam Bay. This was the first truly unspoilt beach I discovered. I feel the unique feature is that they are smartest of all to keep track of all unexplored and undiscovered destinations around the world.
The next in line for me was Continue reading ‘Virgin. Beach. Arugam. Bay’

The above photo was taken on the road between Lahugala ending up in the middle of Arugam Bay. This road totally avoids PottuVille town and does NOT cross the new so-called “High Tech” USAID bridge as it leads around the east of the lagoon.
(It does NOT cross any rivers either. Further questions the need for a 14Mill$ bridge)
A nice alternative, saving time and much more appealing than the slow transit thru PottuVille.
