Me arriving an hour late, always good for the guest of honour. But fortunately in Sri Lanka not a big issue, although the flowers in the garland had started to wilt. This was the regional part of this project to encourage children to express themselves through the arts. Afterwards we all went down to the local beach for lunch and I showed some of the kids how to build sandcastles, I had bought a few buckets in Ampara, alas no spades.My Blog, started to record my adventures as I headed off to live and work in Sri Lanka for a couple of years in March 2006. The blog is now a general record of what I am doing, I have also added the VSO process detail from April 2005 for new Volunteers reading it. Please note: the views expressed in this blog are the author's own and do not necessarily reflect those of VSO.
