Long drive and the cold mountains...

This weekend we spend some nice time in Nuwara Eliya.


Cold mountains…

After a long drive from Colombo, those beautiful tea capped mountains, the wind, the mist, the fog and the cold were the sings of a heaven in a paradise.


Sometimes the visibility was sub-zero levels…

On our way to the Nuwara Eliya area the landscape seems more polluted and disturbed than ever though we enjoyed the drive.


Trees cut the barren land is exposed to land slides but still beautiful…

Following day was awesome with the beautiful sun shining all the day. For my surprise there wasn't any rain while Colombo and most of the country was about to be flooded by the heavy rains. I think this is the sheer beauty of Sri Lanka having all kind of whether at the same time.


Clouds were seen below us…


Dreamy roads…

It is sad our morons too still continue to cut even the last forests we have in these misty mountains started first by the British for the tea plantations.


It was cold and rainy all the way…

Gayani says we would have been much better off without those tea plantations or the British invaders. It is arguably correct though I guess our moron politicos had enough time to correct those if they really wanted. But they never did and now it's too late. At least the British did it to a plan our ones still doing it in a hap hazard unplanned manner.


These historic big old trees can no longer be seen in the landscape…

Gee’s sis’s little one was so much of life bundle to have around…


So we never missed our fun putting five for five ;-)

Viola!

Surprise! After long long delays BT Option (Sri Lankan dealer for Palm and Apple products) have finally sent me my long awaited Treo replacement for my troubled unit. Old one had some memory issues having a loop-reboot.



Yeahooo... It's a brand new unpacked one. Now having all the fun syncing the new phone with my old data. Palm OS reigns supreme here than any other NOKIA or MS based smartphone. Palm’s award winning PIM suite and the Palm Desktop Software backs up everything up to the PC it only takes mere 2–3 minutes to re-sync all your settings and data form the old phone to the new one.

Everything means contacts, notes, user registrations, colour theme to the ringtone you have set to a particular person gets right back on your new unit and rings right away when that particular person calls. 

Viola...

NB: Meanwhile I heard the news of Plam is about to release the successor to this Treo 650 here without the bulky antenna.
