Splendid Sri Lanka

 Fresh fruit for breakfast.
Crows for company.
Soaring eagles.
Lots of walks with lots to see.
Fabulous flora.
Tuk tuks in every direction.
School children on field trips.
Flags and kites flying.
Gorgeous sunsets.
 
 
  
  
All of this and my birthday, too.
 We had a fabulous trip but now we are back.
Back to the regular routine.
And a brand new month.
Thanks for all the birthday wishes!
Have a wonderful week!

    I'm so glad you had a wonderful birthday Tammy. Those crows are so funny, they aren't afraid of you at all are they? It looks as though the weather was divine and your time was happy. Have a lovely week.
    Blessings,
    Betsy

    A wonderful description and wonderful photos. Only one thing, I'm not a fan of crows as they are a nuisance here and they eat the smaller song birds that I love. Glad you had a wonderful birthday and trip.
    I would love to be somewhere warm. Someday it will happen here but not yet.
    Welcome back!
    Linda :)

    Dearest Tammy,
    Sounds like you had a very ejoyable but fast-passing time in Sri Lanka again.
    Glad you're safe back and so are we. Back from The Netherlands where we celebrated Mom's 90th Birthday and Mom & Dad's 65th wedding anniversary with 51 family members...
    Now adjusting to the other life again.
    Hugs,
    Mariette

    Tammy,
    I'm currently reading Paul Theroux's Ghost Train to the Eastern Star. It's nice to see some pictures of the place he describes as beautiful with lovely people and good food. Happy Birthday!

    Glad you had such a lovely birthday trip, Tammy! And your pictures are transporting and inspiring, as always. My eye was caught by the botanical-themed gate and window grate on #127.

    Sri Lanka looks like paradise Tammy!
    Reminds me of parts of Thailand with the delicious mangos, melons and pawpaw for breakfast every day - so yummy! Similar flora too.
    I love the photo of the school girls in their white dresses paddling in the sea.
    Belated birthday wishes my friend!!!!
    Hugs
