We have left for Arugam Bay…

Thursday, July 2, 2009

In 1 hour 30 minutes…we leave for Abay

We head to paradise! Arugam Bay. Yahoooo. Hope for nice waves in the morning and then windy afternoons. Surfing in the morning, Kitesurfing in the afternoon.

  • Somlak – must try your thai cooking
  • Fred – the local brew
  • Richard – perhaps some surf lessons for Curt
  • Saman and Minna – mmm, the pizza

The crowd from MAS, now dont stay indoors, go out in the sun and get tanned! Ah, Sri Lanka Rocks!
