A rock cave temple, a ferry ride and the Mighty Mini Club

By David Todd

Twenty six Minis left Colombo at 8.45a.m.on a Saturday morning from Havelock Town for Kukuleganga and after a 90 kilo-metre journey we arrived at our destination-the Kukuleganga Holiday resort on time for lunch.

After a sumptuous meal the Mighty Mini Club members were once again set off on to the road. This time the visit was to the Kukuleganga dam site and the drive was enjoyed by the mini as well as all villagers who thronged around the vehicles just to see a heck of a lot of cars of the same make running in tandem.

After we completed the main item in our agenda we were back at our hotel just to give a break to our aching feet. However the day ended with a BBQ & camp fire on the side of the swimming pool which also included a hearty sing-song and a date with Bacchus.

On Sunday morning we hit the road again and this time it was to visit the Pahiyangala Rock Cave Temple that took the entire contingent by awe. The ride to the temple also included a memorable and thrilling ride on a ferry which took the minis across the Kukuleganga.

After almost two days of new experiences and fellowship we returned to Colombo after lunch which was sponsored by the Mighty Mini Club.
