Getting To Sri Lanka


This is a drawing of the first 24 hours of our journey to Sri Lanka, the highlights being the 3-hour jam on the motorway, the dash for the flight, the random meals and the bit where we are met by NK at Columbo airport and taken straight for our third breakfast in 12 hours. This is just the first half of the journey. When NK saw us looking like the poor straggly things that we had become he said, When did you set off? ... Yesterday morning ... hahahaha ... we now have very a long drive, you are going to kill me ....

  2. Sounds like Groundhog Day for breakfasts! I hope you are now settled in and able to eat the full complement of meals once more.

    Your diagram is great, I'm inspired to practice a bit of drawing myself.

  11. I'm glad the food's tasty. Make sure you eat lots of imperial things like kedgeree, you must set a good example to the natives.
