En la mañana estuvimos caminando por un sendero cerca a la
casa de Anupama. El recorrido es
de 2 millas, y los arboles estan marcados con sus nombres nativos. Se pueden ver pajaros, mariposas,
bufalos, etc. Tambien conocimos y le
tomamos fotos a un viejito que vive con lo minimo en una choza cerca al
sendero.
Por la noche fuimos al templo Kelaniya Raja Maha Viharaya al
desfile por la celebracion de luna llena, Poya’s day. En Sri Lanka el dia de luna es festivo y siempre hay
celebraciones en los templos.
Diferentes templos hacen desfiles en diferentes meses del año.

In the morning we went for a walk along a path close to
Anupama’s house. The walk is 2
miles long and the trees are marked with their native names. We could see birds, butterflies,
buffalos, etc. We also met and
took some pictures of an old man that lives with the bare minimum in a very
humbled shack along the path.
In the evening we went to temple Kelaniya Raja Maha Viharaya
for the full moon parade, Poya’s day.
In Sri Lanka the full moon day is a holiday and there are lots of
celebrations at the temples.
Different temples have parades in differents months of the year.
