We drove down to Galle the site of the early Dutch fort. It is an interesting place to visit as the old town occupies the old fort area. From the outside most of the walls remain and the centre is a labyrinth of old streets and lanes with museums, shops, restaurants and hotels.
The old Dutch Reform Church.
The entry to the Maritime Museum.
All Saints Anglican Church.
The Light house.
We met the man in this poster! It is correct ...he is a crazy jumper! When he collects enough money he jumps into the shallow ocean pool.
By now it was raining so we spent the next few hours either checking indoor venues and shops or walking in the rain. Lucky for us we found a nice small and dry cafe.
One of the indoor venues was a Buddhist temple where we were the only visitors.
