This week has been spent looking around Batticoloa. It's pretty small and you could really see everything in a day or two. Having a bicycle really helps. Even though Batticaloa is small, walking anywhere in the heat would have been really tough.
I checked out things like the large public market downtown.
There is a little park in the center town called Gandhi Park. From there I got a good shot of someone fishing.
In town, just behind Gandhi Park, there are several blocks of streets filled with shops. This is the typical look of a street in Sri Lanka.
The past couple of days have been cloudy, which lowers the temperature and is much more comfortable. I rode the bicycle a little further from the center of town, to Lagoon Park. On the way there were many mangrove trees in the water.
One evening we went out for dinner with Celene's landlords and their three children. The mother has kind of adopted Celene and has been very helpful.
