This morning we visited a Sister who has been in the hospital with pneumonia. She is slowly getting better.
Our next adventure was to visit a family about 1 hour away from Kandy.
On the way we stopped to take pictures of "Bible Rock."
Deuteronomy 4:29
But if from thence thou shalt seek the Lord thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy ❤HEART❤ and with all thy soul.
Across the street were these mischevious monkeys!
This is the family we met.
They shared with us red bananas, cookies, mangoes, pineapple, cherries, oil cakes and cream soda. I am so amazed at how much they share with us who are total strangers.
Priyadarshana, his son (Yasiru Sadakan), his sister (Dasuntha) and mother (Premanathi).
The reason for our visit was a request from Priyadarshana's sister who lives in the UK. She had contacted President Nishan from the Colombo 1st Branch, in December, to have someone give her father a blessing. We got the message two days ago and found out that her father passed away a week ago, but they still wanted us to come and meet them. I have decided that these people have ❤HEARTS❤ of gold. They treated us as if we have been friends forever. We are sorry for their loss but what a pleasure to meet them.
Hope we touched their ❤HEARTS❤ as much as they touched ours.
On the way back to Kandy we stopped by this rock with a hole through it. (Kadugannawa Rock View and Rest area). The story we were told was when the British were here they cut a hole through the rock, even though it was easy to go around it. When asked why they cut the hole, they said it was because they could do it. 🤔 You can't drive through it any more because the rock is slipping.
