Colonial Flashback


To travel back in time to the days of the British colonial rule in Sri Lanka, I had lunch at the Galle Face Hotel, one of the oldest in the world. It dates back to the time of the US Civil War! Getting there required a tuk-tuk ride, and the only choice for lunch was the buffet. However, the serene ocean view was worth it. This place will be even more awesome when it is no longer necessary to have a guntower guarding the coast by the pool.
