Here are photos of the mountains and tea estates that took our breathe away as we approach Nano Oya, our final stop and where we get off. I am not much of photographer but I hope it captured everything we wish to freeze in our memories.

Evergreens show that we have reached a high altitude.

Sri Lanka has black bears and leopards prowling in the woods.

Still going higher..

Clean, cold crisp mountain spring

The jungle gets thicker.

My soul is bare in the eyes of God...

A land of hundreds of waterfalls and springs.

Mountain cottage overwhelmed by weeds.

This one looks more maintained.

Slowly trudging on, like we do through life..
I have seen many tea estates from a car... It gets a little different and more exciting from a slow moving train...

Outback roads to tea estates.

Tea factory.

Ihalawatala

Half-inheritance?

"... I see the mountain grandeur. They Power throughout the universe displayed."

And waterfalls to admire.

A tree of fire.

Rock solid.

From afar.

And another angle.

Clean. cool water.
And we never got tired of beautiful rolling hills of tea.

Housing for tea workers.

Probably a supervisor's home.

It is untiringly beautiful.
