Sri Lanka 22: Jaffna

Posted on 4 February 20152 April 2021 by Rob Ainsley


With no train out available until the night after tomorrow, I’ve ended with a couple of spare days in Jaffna. Today was a delightfully relaxed affair: everything was shut because it was a public holiday (hence the full trains) and it poured down with rain. So, after a cursory bit of biking round town, I had every excuse to stay in my cosy guesthouse room. Specifically, my personal covered courtyard (pic), enjoying a beer to celebrate finishing the End to End at long last. Cheers!

Miles today: 10
Total miles: 588
Miles Dondra Head to Point Pedro: 470
