Disc Jockeys are now regular fare at receptions in Sri Lanka. Equipped with the latest equipment and a collection of CDs of popular songs, they fill the festive air with music.

Sights seen at Kuruwita.

A country road near Bo-path Ella.

Samanala Kanda (Adam's peak) and its neighbour called 'Baena Samanala Kanda' as seen from the town, Kuruwita. I presume the tallest peak is Pedurutalagala, the tallest mountain of Sri Lanka.
