Family at their houseboat

An unidentified woman holding a toddler, stands between two children. The one on the left is possibly a teenager and the other a young child in Sri Lanka [then Ceylon]. They stand in the water in front of a houseboat with a bowed roof of grass, wooden sides and a wooden boat. A boy is standing in the water at the helm holding the houseboat. A man stands on a deck at the helm leaning on the houseboat. One boy sits on top of the roof. To other boys stand along side of the boat. There is a steep bank on the other side of the body of water and a flat, rocky beach on the front side of the houseboat.
