| Fighting elephants |
We headed to Sri Lanka for a couple of weeks in July, to see friends and family. This time we didn't do the trip around the country like the previous year, spending quite a bit of time in Colombo, but we did take some time out to go check out the ancient city of Polonnaruwa, the 2nd capital of Sri Lanka. We also checked one of the National parks nearby, called Minneriya, which is home to some nice herds of elephants. This post is just a few photos of the elephants and birds we saw in the area.
