Jaffnizzy
I think I forgot to mention that I met up with my sister in India, and right now we're staying at my mom's old house in Jaffna, catching up with relatives and my parents old friends that I've never met before. It's been an amazing time. Everyone is so welcoming and the food is sooo good...I've put on 4kg since I took off for India.
With so many people and places to see in a limited time, we've been traveling non-stop. Today is the first night that I think I'll have time (and non-generator-dependent power) to type up a post or two on my laptop.
I've learned that my next few flights have been bungled and I'll be spending the precious few days left in Sri Lanka running around trying to ensure I end up at the right airport on the right day. I'd even settle for just the right airport. Although my currently scheduled trip to Australia technically fits that criteria...it would be Singapore to Sydney, 5 hours in the airport, and then flying right back.
So hopefully I can get a few posts out this week, and you can look forward to adventures next week with the "brown man."

How do you find Jaffna? That's pretty cool your mom's house is still there. I think my mom was saying her parents and sisters houses were all damaged from the fighting. Edit
Well it's not in as bad shape in some parts, but life has to go on I guess. A lot of the remote areas that were damaged are still in ruins.
My dad's house was not so fortunate... Edit
