I almost skipped this last stop on the tour. Last year it was no good for me. Very few prospective students visited my table. I’m glad I decided to participate in the end. It was much more productive this time ‘round. I had some time off on the day of my flight out. I went downtown with a couple other reps to try to do some shopping. No good. It was largely shut-down and deserted. There is a big festival somewhere else in the city, and the place is on lock-down – lots of armed military patrolling about. Still, we walked around a bit, then took a stroll along the seaside promenade. Got a couple of interesting videos…
Here is a 360 of where downtown meets the beach...
And where the run-off meets the beach...
Sri Lankans enjoying a nice afternoon...
Sri Lankan-style fast-food at the local mall (okay, I still had Pizza Hut)...
This last one I took at a food break on the way to the airport. Again, I'm disappointed with the quality of the transfer (so much better on my computer!). Make sure to get a look at what the last one leaves behind.
And your moment of zen...

Great "Moment of Zen." It's almost impossible when you are there recruiting, but the REAL Sri Lanka is outside of Colombo. Someday you must experience my spiritual home.
