5th tour is... Colombo!

 Next stop is Colombo, Sri Lanka!

Colombo is the executive and judicial capital and largest city of Sri Lanka by population. It's on the west coast of the island nation.

Sri Lanka is in the Indian Ocean, southwest of the Bay of Bengal, separated from the Indian peninsula by the Gulf of Mannar and the Palk Strait. It shares a maritime border with the Maldives in the southwest and India in the northwest.

Djurdjura National Park Algeria


Algeria is much more than the Sahara desert. There's plenty of mountains and vegetation around us on the coast. Our friends invited us to go camping and hiking at the Cairn Mountain glamping site in the Djurdjura National Park in Tizi Ouzou, which is about 2 hours east of Algiers. The hike had wonderful views and we even saw monkeys in the trees. It was a great weekend trip away from the city!
