Chitrasena Dance Company

What a treat! Some years ago I had the priveledge of attending (with my camera) the Chitrasena dancers rehearsing for an upcoming performance. Still carrying on their tradition of excellence, today. Here are a few pix from that memorable day. 

 

Upeka, the heart








     Thanks, Upeka

Ritigala, Sri Lanka


 Myth, Legend, Superstition, Truth...

I've been to the mountain

Ancient monks, noted for keen insight, austere disciplines and artful ayurvedic healing skills, were the doctors and teachers of their day.
 
 
Giants too...
 
Some pix from my three visits...
Kosala, my side kick and trusty pard...
 
Ancient footprints everywhere...
























You can see forever...


Magical herbs, flying monkeys, battleground for dueling giants, meditating monks, lost technologies, sanctuary of kings...
              Goodnight for now, your highness

 A GOOD DAY FOR A DRIVE

Sriyani and I observed our anniversary the other day. I decided to treat her to a jeep ride to celebrate the occasion. Our driver said he knew of a road with a good view. I said, well let's go. It turned out to be a good idea. 

Here are a few pix from our little trip through  Kaudulla Park in Sri Lanka...























I love the wild life with you, Sriyani

Happy Anniversary
