usan, jaffna, sri lanka

My mom's old house when she was growing up. During the past decade it was occupied by the Sri Lankan Army. They just recently vacated it. It was used as a storage hold and living quarters for Sinhalese soldiers.

The next three are the house my mom's parents built for my mom and dad when they got married. They were never allowed to live there, as a Sri Lankan army general took up residence in it. We weren't allowed to visit it when we went to Sri Lanka in 2002 or 2005.
