Puis vais au Hard Rock manger un tres bon ...

... me rincer, et mange mon curry, pas tres bon mais pas cher du tout. Puis la pluie se remet a tomber, attendons une accalmie pour aller voir le temple au bout de la plage et escalader jusqu'a la dagoba. Bien sur il se remet a pleuvoir, prenons quelques photos et descendons par des rochers, escalade perilleuse surtout en tongs... Escaladons un mur et passons a travers le ...

... il n'en trouve pas, juste du gras et je lui dis de reprendre sa pizza et que je ne paierai pas pour finir des restes de leur cuisine. Finis ma biere et demande l'addition, et il me dit de payer juste la moitie de la pizza. Lui reponds que je ne paierai que ma biere.. Apres 5 mn il est d'accord. La galere pour une pizza.

A great day all round. 14-16th October I spent the next 3 days basically relaxing on the beach all day, eating seafood for dinner every night and playing pool.

... took the opportunity to go to the Indian Embassy to organise my Indian visa which was a bit of a time consuming process! This week is a short week because the office is closed for a week from the 10th to the 17th because the 12th and 13th is the Sinhala and Tamil New Year celebration time (Aurudu festival) It is a very auspicious event, and the actual time when they celebrate and eat the meal is determined by astrology.

... were continuing to rise and there was no sign of a cold beer coming my way. We made Pondicherry more or less our last stop in India before flying from Chenai to Colombo in Sri Lanka, where we made the assumption there would be no elections or other inhibit ants to the consumption of alcohol, and we could head straight for a beach and enjoy a well earned ice cold beer... ...not so. we only have to walk off of the plane to find out that ...
