Now this is rush hour in Colombo (Thursday evening, 1730).
And this.
The reach of Bollywood celebrities - Aamir Khan sells mobiles here. (A passerby stared curiously at me, wondering what the heck I saw worth clicking in a roadside poster.)
And Aamir Khan isn't the only one. Priyanka Chopra and Shilpa Shetty stared haughtily down at me from the cosmetics aisle of the Arpico supermarket.
I snagged my bag on a protruding screw inside this autorickshaw. I realised that this sort of workmanship is perfectly acceptable in India and Sri Lanka, but Australians would probably make an OH&S (Occupational Health and Safety) issue out of it.
There's a beautiful Buddha shrine on my street (Park Street), just a couple of minutes' walk from the hotel.
I murmured a 'thank you' to him. This trip has been pure magic.
