After a few months of work, I thought it's time to get some holiday.. So, I went to my home town Wahacotte, (quite famous for the Portuguese colony and the 15th century St Antony's Church). Well, the bus wasn't very crowed as it wasn't really the holiday season yet, although it will be on next week (Christmas holiday).. It is about four hour journey from Colombo, however, since it was a poya day, plus I got up late, so the crow had already vanished and
it took bit more than 3hours to my place.. As I move closer to the destination the rain was pouring heavily.
Adventure I (Roller Coaster Ride And Free Fall)
Once I got down from the bus, I thought I'll catch a three wheeler.. That was a loud one, I should have got on to a bus instead. I had a quite a ride up hill.. This guy was turning to the left and the the vehicle was sliding to the other side. First it was scary, coz' with a little over slip, I could have been experiencing the free fall for about 10 seconds and then I do the triple Summer salt and tasting my own feet that wrapped around my neck. I thought, that something might have been wrong with the usual break system but turned out one of the tires' had very little air.
Adventure II (REDBULL)
Anyway, I didn't know that there was another adventure ahead of me. well, this time it was a big, fat, ugly, wild bull on loose whos apparently bit angry thinking that I'm eying on his lady friend, plus I'm wearing RED.well RED and BULL doesn't really go together, (wonder how they
come up with the name redbull). Now, this was a quite a scene. Bugger's on my way to the house which is about 30 yards. Well, nothing else to do, so, I got a big stick and giving a big shout I went charging at him. Naaahh!! what do you crazy?! although, I did give a little shout and threw some rocks at the bugger.. Well, bugger gave a very nasty look and walked off.
Turned out that wasn't the big bad bull, this one seems like an innocent little bugger.. ah! well...
Peace At Last
As it was raining I couldn't go anywhere, so I spent time roaming in our little estate.. Well, that was the most beautiful site that I've seen in ages. Too bad, as I don't have a good camera, I took the photos from my phone, hope Santa will give me a "HandyCam" this time :-D
