Well I am back in Sri Lanka. Managed to get to Bangkok late on Wednesday afternoon and Colombo just before midnight last night. Colombo appears to be reasonably normal although I base this simply on seeing out appartment where we have running water, electricity etc., a short walk between Majastic City & Liberty Plaza where the shops have food in them and the drive from the airport to Colombo where I didn't notice any flood damage.
I am having an early night tonight as I haven't slept well since the Tsunami struck. I need a holiday just to get over the last holiday. But I'll take the fact I am alive and I have food and shelter available to me and be thankful for that.
My apologies for not replying to the many comments to my blog over the last few days but travelling (postponed flights etc.) and a rapidly dwindling wad of Bahts meant my time on-line has been very limited. Reading through the comments many thanks for other people who have been able to get on-line for answering some of the questions asked.
I am back in work tomorrow and on Tuesday the company I work for hopes to get some information from around the Koggola area of Sri Lanka, where we have a factory.
I have downloaded the pictures I took in Phuket of the aftermath of the tsunami from my Camera to my laptop and will try and get these uploaded over the next few days.
