It was with great joy I got to cruise around the streets of Colombo in Sri Lanka to witness the decoration on all the buildings with lots of lights. It was because of the Wesak celebration (Buddha’s birthday) in the middle of May. In the city there were  stands where they were giving out free food like rice and curry, tea or ice cream. There were a lot of people who were standing in cue to get rice and curry. People would come up to your car just to give everyone ice cream. Below is some pictures from that night.
