Polonnaruwa

A  breeze followed us through the ancient city of polonnaruwa as we explored the ruins. The large stupas and columns provided great spaces to play hide and seek. We traveled along dappled corridors of green until we came to the draw cards. Two Buddhas, one reclined the other seated towered above us. Their scale so impressive and serene. It is disrespectful to take a photograph with ones back towards the Buddha but facing the Buddha is allowed. As I photographed Flora I remembered images of my three year old self in the same place. 

Sol found an icecream tuk tuk and soon appropriated it before indulging in a well deserved treat.
