This weekend only 4 of us stayed behind in the house and we visited Kandy (biggest city after Colombo). First of all we went to the Botanical Gardens where we had to use squat toilets. Walking about the gardens was really nice. We saw loads of fruit bats hanging in the trees and flying over head. Was incredible! rnrnThen we went to a temple and we all bought an original painting from and artist who worked there. Then we went for lunch and did some shopping in a market near-by. I bought a aubergine sari with glittery thread through it. Then, in the van on the way to the tooth relic temple, somebody threw something in the van (we think is was a poo!) and it went all down my top and on my arm. Was not impressed! In the tooth temple we were frisked and had to go through metal detectors. rnrnOnce inside we had to take our shoes and couldn't take any pictures without a permit! We all chipped in and the girl with the best camera took the photos! Going to get a copy of them later on. After the tooth temple we went to a Kandyan Dancing show. There was a power cut half way through so it was a bit dark :( At the end they did fire walking.rnrnThe drive home was long and boring...nothing to report on that front!
