Arugam Bay

Loaded ox cart.

Fishermen from the Arugam Bay village in the Eastern Province of Sri Lanka using Ox drawn carts to load their daily catch from the boats across the lagoon to the waiting traders. When the catch is good and fish are plenty the price drops and often fish are given away to poorer members of their community who gather in hope of a fish for their dinner.
