    After Colombo, Galle is one of the most visited destinations in Sri Lanka. It's an ancient city with quite a lot to see, do and eat.
    The first part of my day trip to Galle included eating some delicious roasted peanuts and walking around the famous Galle Fortress. I also walked past the lighthouse.
    For a view of the city of Galle I climbed up a building and onto the top roof area to get a nice panoramic view.
    Stopping at the bus station, I sampled a few Sri Lankan speciality snacks known as short eats. Fish and spices are combined then deep friend and called cutlets. They are absolutely wonderful.
    In the later afternoon I took a short ten minute bus ride to Unawatuna, a beautiful beach just south of Galle. The sunset was stunning as was all the scenery.
    After a lovely day trip to Galle and the surrounding area, we headed back to Colombo!

    Hey, thank you for watching my videos. Yes, I do enjoy eating with my hands, but I do wash before eating!

    Thank you so much, unfortunately I'm actually not in Sri Lanka anymore.... but hope I can visit again. I had some similar experiences though, Sri Lankan people are truly generous and hospitable. Thanks for watching.

    I think I stood up for about 3/4 of it, but finally sat down when some people got off. Traveling in Sri Lanka by public bus, you get really accustomed to standing on buses, and you've got to hold on for your life!

    Thank you for watching! I really enjoy traveling and so I've been able to save some money and now manage to make enough through online projects and freelance writing to be able to still travel. If you go over to my site migrationology[dot]com I've got some more articles explaining a little more about the way I've able to travel. Thanks again for stopping by!
