Let's Go Fly a Kite!


It was a beautiful day to go fly a kite.


We headed up to Hantana Mountain. Started at one spot but too many wires.


Found the perfect spot.


Look at it soar!


With some help we were able to get it up and flying.


Then the tree snatched it up.


Trying to get it out of the tree.
We managed to get it out of the tree.
Got it up and soaring when the string broke.


Away it went out in the valley.


Loved the view.


Picture time!


I think our kite is with many others that escaped the grasp of the string.
Just means we have to go another time.


View of Kandy City.

 

Road heading up the mountain. Very impressed with all the stone.


After kite flying we did our grocery shopping. Then headed to get something to eat. We tried sizzling chicken. It actually was quite good. We had it with fried rice.


Our evening appointment cancelled so we decided to visit this Buddhist temple. It is called Nelligala International Buddhist Centre. It was just renovated last year.




 

Nice views!


The temple is built on a huge rock.

 

Little pond and bridge you have to cross to get to the top.


Potted plant

 

Some wild life, a leaf hopper and a chameleon. 

 

 

 



Hair relic and bone relic of Lord Buddha.



Fancy doors


If you look close you can see our reflections.

The stone work on the stairs was so nice.
Had a great time visiting this temple.

 

Flowers at our apartment.


This looks like corn on the cob growing on this plant.
