September 14, 2015

The most amazing experience this morning.  My friends Pamela and Brett Sine were having a party at their house near Cowichan Bay on Vancouver Island.  I called them on FaceTime when the party was on and had a chance to participate in it.  I was passed around on Pamela's iPad to everyone at the party and had a chance to chat with all of them.  I even saw a friend I have not seen in over 20 years.  Here I was sitting in my office in Kandy while they were on the deck on the Strait of Georgia and we were talking like I was right there.  This technology never ceases to amaze me.

I even got a look at all the lovely food and helped Pamela reheat the veg curry in her kitchen.  Gotta love it.

Meanwhile back here in Sri Lanka, went to lunch with 2 friends after book club at a place I had not been before, a hotel called the Tree of Life.  It is a lovely place set in the most beautiful garden.  We were the only ones at the pool side patio.  We had a great lunch of fish and chips and enjoyed a monsoon downpour under cover of the veranda roof.  By the time we finished eating, the weather cleared and we had a clear drive back to Kandy.

Then it was off to the dentist for me as I had broken one of my wisdom teeth last night.  I was in and out of the dentist in 15 minutes with the tooth filled with a soft bonding composite to be followed by a hard filling in a month.  LKR.2200, about C$21 is all it cost me.  Great dentistry here.
