Looking out of the rain forest at a small village
The road to Paradise Beach Club
in Mirissa
This may look so serene, but there are millions of walking blood-sucking leeches just waiting to eat.
The view of our cabaña from the
hotel restaurant
Our very, very simple room, with mosquito netting
A sea turtle begging for food
The same boring sunset every night had
me longing for 10 minutes of TV
This was before the leeches escaped with
a gallon of my blood
Here I am catching the last wave
of the evening
Or before the giant bats stole our women
There were no leeches here
But there was this bad boy -- a four-foot
biting dragon lizard
A sea turtle nesting area
Christmas morning from a cafe on the beach
A few friends we met on the beach
