Well here are just a few of the photos I took in Kandy, I forgot to tell you about the show we went to. It was really good with lots of traditional dances, Kandian dance is very famous in Sri Lanka and it takes ages to train in the traditional way, no wonder two of the dancers looked liked they'd retired hahahaha.
