Day 12 - Today, Jay's elder sister returned to her house in Nugegoda. That area is a part of Greater Colombo, the capital. We booked a Pick-Me rideshare car through an app on my phone. Along came a tiny Tata Nano. They were a 'people's car' made by the Indian conglomerate from 2008 to 2018. They are somewhat like a tuk-tuk with doors. However, she made it safely home in an hour and and a half. The trip is only 45 kilometers but traffic in this country is now atrocious. Back in the 80s when there were far fewer cars, we could get a bus to Columbo in just forty-five minutes.
Earlier in the day, before she left, Jay was cooking with his sisters. In fact, if Jay ever writes a cookbook on Sri Lankan cuisine, it'll have to be titled, Cooking With My Sisters.
