SOJOURNPOSSE: SRI LANKA

Offerings to The Ocean:
Sea Harvest Festival in Udappuwa, Sri Lanka
Photos and words by Deshan Tennekoon

The Udappuwa festival is an adaptation of the traditional harvest and rain festival in response to geography - instead of praying for a good rice or vegetable harvest, this fishing community prays for a good catch.
