Down the Hill


This picture was taken while going towards Haputhale along A4 road. Here, I’m looking towards Uda Walawe side.

You will see similar sceneries during most part of the journey, along this road.

Hi, KP sometimes you make me wonder if I am blind. I have flown down that road many a times but you always spot things I never manage to :) Perhaps I should let someone else do the white knuckle driving.
Is that pine forests we see on the hills? Again thank you for showing us the things we manage to miss.

Amazing scenery!

Magerata,
Yes, it is difficult to see the view while driving as the winding road needs constant concentration on the road. I think you should be the passenger next time :)
Yes, both of the two mountanis in the picture are covered with pine forests like this one . Thanks for your comments. :)

Betchai,
Yep, imagine the scenery that a bird sees everyday. Must be fascinating. Thanks for your comments. :)

OK, currently I am more than envious!
We just had another dusty day and except for my little time at the beach and a few dog rounds I've been cooped up in the house.
*sigh*

Green carpeted mountains are the best!
