We have been so busy

The last 2 days have been a worldwind of activity. Yesterday we visited St. Bens for the first time. We were given our tour of St. Benedicts by Brother Granville, the director. We then met the teachers in the large auditorium area where we broke up into groups to exchange information.



In the afternoon we visited another St. Joseph's College. This was a beautiful campus located right by the ocean. With our Old Ben's representative we then journeyed to a "Food City" where we purchased groceries. The weather here has been in the 90's and extremely humid. In the evening we journied to the Capri Club in downtown Colombo where we were the guest of Mr. DudleyThambinayagam.

We arrived safe and sound

Hi everyone,

We arrived here last evening at 5:00 PM NY time. We were pretty exhausted from our long trip so most of us headed straight to bed. It is now 10:45 NY time and we are headed out to meet the teachers at St. Benedict. We will be gone for the day. I will post more later if time allows. I hope that the pictures come up OK. If anyone want s to e-mail me at DrPeterMcCarthy@gmail.com to let me know, that would be great.
