We decided in Pulua Weh off the coast of Samartar that instead of going up the Red Sea we would be going off to Sri Lanka and from there to India for six months overland travling.
In Sri Lanka the only habour was Port Galle which was filled with military forces because of the ongoing war with the Tamils
,when we got back from overland traveling in Kandy and Nuwera Eliya which had a large variety of vegetables and tea plants we were asked to move for the safety of our boat because two large chopper helicopters would be coming in at 6:00 am that morning , we moved but they didn't come until later that afternoon they caused no damage but later the damage was caused by an alarmingly large tug boat who almost knocked out 4 boats including us but only sideswiped one.we left quickly the next day ready for India.
