Click here for more photos from our Thanksgiving week spent enjoying Sri Lanka's south coast, from Hiriketiya to Talalla to Weligama. We walked along some of Sri Lanka's most scenic beaches, saw a peacock take flight, took in amazing sunsets, and were happy to see so many tourist kicking-off the South Coast's high season, in spite of political unrest.
For more on the political situation in Sri Lanka, this brief video provides a excellent summary.
Click here to watch a quick video of the fish we saw being dragged on shore and sold literally fresh off the boat as we passed through Galle on our way back to Colombo.
Meanwhile back in Oregon, click here for a few photos of the kids enjoying a late Fall sail and Thanksgiving with great friends.
And finally, here's a recipe for our favorite Sri Lankan dish, Pol Sambol. We can make sambol fresh at home now with the coconut shredder I got for my birthday.
- 1/2 fresh coconut, shredded
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp sugar
- 2 Tbsp crushed red pepper
- juice of 1 lime
- diced red onion to taste
- optional add-ins include diced tomato, dried fish flakes, cumin, mustard seed
