During our first visit back in 1992 we were so lucky getting to know so many friendly people.
Some of them have become friends for life.

Van in het begin werden we getroffen door de vriendelijke openheid van dit lieve volk; we leerden er toen reeds onze vrienden kennen. Intussen zijn die banden enkel maar sterker en dieper geworden.

Jayanthe was one of the lifeguards at the excellent 5-star beach hotel Triton in Agunhalla. He has the same job  now at the Beruwela in the Club Palm Garden. He is married to Anusha and they have a little boy born 2.11.96

Jayanthe was redder in de Triton; intussen is hij getrouwd met Anusha en heeft een schattig zoontje van 2 jaar, Adippa.

Priyankara was  one of the many stewards at the same hotel; he is now trying to establish his own Wooden Handicraft firm. He has married lovely Neshani and also has a wonderful boy of  2, Praveen.

Peepee was steward in datzelfde hotel; ook hij is getrouwd met mooie Neshani en is vader van guitige Praveen.

Isudda Nayagaran de Silva was also one of the many staff at Triton; he is trying to put up his own little grocery shop. He married nice looking Nilmini only last year.

Nayagaran was ook steward daar; hij woont in Matara met zijn jonge bruid  Nilmini.

Mihindu Gurusinghe was only 19 when we met. Unfortunately I have lost all contact with him since 1997. His mother tells me he is living in Singapore?

Ook Mihindu werkte in de Triton; van hem hoor ik helaas niks meer.
