Sigiriya Rock

Took a hike up Sigiriya rock, and it was quite a hike.

The rock was once a fortress towering over the surrounding countryside. Getting up involves some rather precarious climbing up som rather rickety old staircases, where the supports have seen better days. It is an amazing view once you are up, we'll worth the climb.

Lots of monkeys around as well as a rather unusual giant Squirrel, which I am convinced was actually a glove puppet.

Because it's a full moon day they won't serve any beer in the hotel, unless thy disguise it by serving it from a tea pot! Coke is fine.
