Birthday Break

Five days in Sri Lanka was my birthday gift and the reason for my absence.

Whenever I travel, I completely unplug from technology.

Our time was spent walking, relaxing,

hiking, eating,

enjoying the great outdoors and the company of friends.

Two of the days were spent at a bungalow with our "adopted" family.

After we had said our goodbyes on Monday, we were called back under the pretext that we had forgotten some of our belongings.

Instead, I was treated to a surprise rendition of happy birthday, cake and a group photo opportunity. 

It's always so lovely to get away.

But yesterday and today it was back to school and back to reality.

Lots of catching up to do.

Hope all is well with you.
