Galle Day 1

We had a comfortable trip down to Galle in a Toyota sedan with a driver who was friendly but didn't pretend to be a guide. The accommodation we have here is in a big old renovated house. The business owner is an architect turned artist so the ground floor is a gallery for his work and the upper floor is the accommodation. Comfortable room though not spacious but with a good bathroom. We had a rest and then went for a walk around the main tourist streets which are within the walls of the old Dutch Fort. Later we went down to walk some of the path along the top of the earthen/rock walls and to watch the sun go down over the ocean. I will need to take photos this evening because I didn't take my tablet last night. We went to a restaurant to have fish for dinner as this is the local specially and we haven't had any since we have been here. Prices are higher here because it is the premium tourist town so it cost a lot more than we have been paying. Elsewhere meals and accommodation have been a lot less than Australia. I am posting a photo of a photo of a leopard which our previous host had above his desk. It was taken by a professional photographer who stayed at his accommodation.
