This is Eranga and myself taken in front of the Dondera lighthouse. This is the southernmost point of Asin sub-continent where the Bay of Bengal meets the Indian Ocean.

We travelled down to Polwhena Bay on 23rd.December when we had problems finding accommodation, because we arrived there late and in the dark. There was no such thing as "no room at the  inn" however. We did find somewhere unlike the travellers to Bethlehem, two millenia ago. What a sad state Bethlehem has now come to. So much support is needed for those who now live Palestine.

To return to the photo just presented, it felt quite strange to think that we were at the end of a land mass where the next stopping point would be Australia. What I also noted that there are families living very publicly right up the road to the lighthouse. There seemed to be little separation of public and private space.
