World Cruise 2013
March 24, 2013
Today the ship arrived at Colombo, Sri Lanka. I took a tour
called “Contrasts of Colombo with Refreshments”. The tour made a tour of the
town and told us about some of the buildings in Colombo. Our first stop was at
the Independence Square where we got off the bus to take some pictures. Our
next stop was at the Colombo Museum where we had 45 minutes to explore the
exhibits. Our next stop was at the Gangarama Temple, a Buddhist Temple where we
had to take our shoes off and we then walked around the site. Our last stop was
at the Galle Face Hotel, which is a Colombo landmark that was built in 1864. We
had a drink and a small snack and had time to take pictures of the beach outside
the hotel. We then took the bus back to the hotel.
Below are some pictures taken from the ship and on my tour.
