Melbourne March 17th

St Patrick's Day and on Tuesday we head to Sri Lanka. I am expecting it to be hot but also interesting as it has been a trading hub for centuries and has had a succession of colonial masters and before that it was settled by various groups from India who brought Buddhism in about 250 B.C.
I am hoping that we get to sample the legacy of this rich history including food and handicrafts.
