Oh, it's a Poya day...

I took this photo in Hikkaduwa, Sri Lanka on a Poya on a full moon night. Every full moon day in Sri Lanka is called Poya in Sinhalese, and every Poya day is Buddhist holiday. So that means a lot of shops and restaurants are taking a break for a day. I think for first-timer tourists, it's a tad hard to find a place to eat ( can't drink alcohol on Poya days, by the way) on Poya day. Anyway, I was in Hikkaduwa on that night and took a stroll around along Galle Road and at least found a place to eat spicy Fish Curry and some rice. I took this photo while I was waiting my dinner at the table.
