Spent the day trudging across a mangrove swamp in Hikkaduwa with some architects, while being eaten alive by ants. Yes folks some architects don’t just sit at home and draw your dream houses. Some of em actually go out to all these god forsaken places and get turned in to gourmet dishes for the local critters to feast on. While some idiot with a camera volunteers to tag along.

One of the architects, Roshan working on his sketch.

Flip flops and shorts, not the best attire for trekking through a swamp.

Five guys sharing two pairs of boots was never going to be very practical. So they were left in the van.

We decided to try the local cuisine.

Our driver decides to cool off in the shade.

Though I did spend the other half of my day photographing Kosgoda Beach. One of those cushy hotels where they have the best prawns, cuttlefish and fruit salad ice cream that money can buy. Sorry no pics of the food. I was too busy stuffing myself.

All in all an awesome Saturday.

I’m a bit bored with the pics from the road trip so I thought I’d upload something different this week. Took the express train up to Kandy once, on the same day they had decided that the tracks needed some maintenance.
