    Sigiriya Dinner

    December 25, 2023 in Sri Lanka ⋅ ☁️ 25 °C

    We finally made it home in the early afternoon and there was time for a swim! We made new friends with a family from French Canada. They were on a 5 month trip of a lifetime. They had planned to start in India then work it out from there but with the political tensions between the Indian and Canadian Governments they could not get visas so it was in Sri Lanka we meet. Thomas and Charlie are one year younger than Lara and Stanley so they had great fun in the pool playing volleyball, football and turtle and frog spotting.

    Mum and Dad sidled up to the swim up bar only to find out that all the spirit bottles on display were fake and there was no actual swim up bar! Regretted not taking a photo but we thought that a fake swim up bar was quite funny!

    We walked back to town for dinner past loads of stray dogs (and the occasional gun fire that made us jump!). Rotis for dinner were delicious! Lara had Chocolate, Stanley had Egg, Mum had Banana and Dad had to have Cheese of course! Happy campers. Home to bed at 8pm, early start tomorrow!
