A visit across the river


One of my aunts is sick and my mother and I visited her at her home. Her home is situated on a river bank and we got to cross the river to go there.
There are local wooden boats carved by villagers to transport people across the river. There is no bridge yet. This is a picture of wooden boats (taken from http://www.supportsrilankafoundation.org/SSLF%20-%20our_projects.htm.) 


Two of these are bound together and a wooden platform is attached on it to transport people.
This is the front of the boat we have boarded.


This is the view at middle of the river. Unfortunately my thumb is covering one view in half.
