We're married (again!)



So this time (Catholic family ceremony in Colombo) we were more organised.
The Church (All Saints - Borella) was were Rowena's parents were married back in 1973. Between both sets of our parents there is more than 80 years of blissful/ semi-blissful marriage which is quite the bench mark.
Personally I was happy with the welcome a northern heathen like myself was given by the Church. When I was blessed I did not turn into a Catholic pumpkin and nor did my skin melt from my face when the holy water, for the ring blessing, hit it ;)
As we were wrapping up the signing the most torrential rain storm came in but by the time we had reached the end of the church it had stopped.......I guess we got lots more holy water for all mum's (Samarasinhe) prayers over the years.
