Sri Lanka, a country once torn apart by civil war and
devastated by the tsunami in 2004. Today things are different. Things are
developing, perhaps slowly, but developing nonetheless. I spent a few days
there when the new year was still only a few weeks old. I remember stressful
drives on narrow, winding, cliff side roads in the dark and in the rain. Clouds
slowly filling up a valley as the sun rose from behind mountains. Elephants
shaking off dirt from grass before eating it. Food that excited and filled the
stomach. I barely scratched the surface of this country.
