Departing just after sunrise and before it gets hot. Thirteen hours to Sri Lanka, mainly over water so there unfortunately won’t be many interesting things on this leg to photograph.

Flying over Muscat
Masalama (Good-Bye) to the desert and mountains.
Late afternoon thunderstorms are common in this part of the world. This is just a snapshot of the weather to come.

Some members of the Jetwing Lagoon Hotel staff and Mr. S. Jude perera (blue shirt), founder of the Christian Pilots Association Of Sri Lanka (C.P.A.S). Mr. Jude was kind enough to give me a quick tour of the historic city of Negombo. Wish I had more time to see the “furry, scaled and feathered creatures” of this beautiful country.

The Jetwing resorts here are absolutely beautiful.
Embarks dream is to provide a better life for the street dogs of Sri Lanka and to give them the love, respect and home they deserve. www.embarkpassion.com
Nearly half way around the world! You must be having such a great time seeing all these beautiful places!!! Fly safe!!
Adrian,
What, no Yemen or Somalia for you? Maybe next time you’re in the neighborhood. On to Indo? Or all the way to Australia? I love watching your tracks around the planet!

Hi Adrian,
How’s the HF antenna holding up? I might need an oil change in Colombo in a few months. Can you bring back some contacts?
Looks like a great trip. I think that you’re having a good time, eh?
