Hills train and drive to Kandy

A big day of travelling today which started with a drive to Ella station where we took the most amazing train ride through the tea plantation hills.

Tuan picked us up from Nanu-oya and we drove a further 3 hours to Kandy stopping off for lunch at a lovely restaurant overlooking a waterfall and then we were taken to a Tea factory where we managed to get conned into buying $60 worth of tea!
