Birthday Traditions


We were invited to a birthday party! I love the Sri Lankan traditions. They have cake and sing happy birthday just like we do. The cake is cut and they have everyone take a bite out of the first piece. I don't know why I was chosen but I got to take the first bite.


As the birthday person is blowing out the candles they spray canned snow on everyone. So watch out everyone, when we get back we are going to do this!


Again lots of food. Chicken and salmon sandwiches, fish rolls, fish logs, sausages, crackers and soda pop. The meal was very tasty.


This is the cute family that we spent the evening with. I am truly humbled at the hospitality of the Sri Lankan people. We had never met before. The mother was taking English classes at the church and invited the Missionaries to their home. We were treated like royalty. We invited them to continue to take English classes at the church. Sure hope to see them again. It was a fun evening.
