Hindu Festival - 08 February


After visiting Summerville we said good-bye to the very hospitable Dickoya Rotarians, packed our stiff and sore bodies into the van, and headed off to Kandy. Guess how long it took? Yep, 3 hours. But again the journey was scenic and fascinating. We passed through a small town in the midst of a Hindu festival. There were people in the streets on some sort of procession. No traffic control like in the States, but there were a few police officers basically trying to direct traffic while trying not to get killed.

We arrived in Kandy in time for lunch and sight-seeing. We were greeted by President Gowri, Rotarian Carl, and Rotaractor (and former GSE'er) Gershani.
