Our notes say Fort Frederick then Nallur. I think we mixed Trinco's fort with Jaffna's Dutch walls. Confirm Jaffna fort is the one by the lagoon here, not the Trinco rock road?

Jaffna fort is the Dutch walls by the lagoon in Jaffna town. Fort Frederick is Trinco, on the way to Koneswaram. Different town, different morning. If your notes mix them, fix the pin before you hire a tuk. You can do Jaffna fort this stay and keep Fort Frederick for the Trinco stretch later.

We had mixed them. Driver laughed kindly. Jaffna walls today, Trinco later.

Maps will autocomplete the wrong fort. Write the town name on the pin.
