Pollonuwara

Day 73 & 74.

Checked into Ayama guest house today - nicest host couple we've had yet in Sri Lanka! Spent the afternoon making some drastic trip changes - due to unforseen visa drama Russia and Mongolia is now off the cards (blame yet to be determined). But this does mean we now have another month to play with, the possibilities!

On the plus side Indian visa now accepted so some serious admin achieved!

Second day we picked up some bikes and headed to the ancient ruins, lots of cycling around and exploring the temples / admiring the many Monkeys! Note to self, get Limbster a lighter bike next time - those poor Limby arms.

After feeling a little rain we cycled to a nearby curry house out in the rice fields, turned out to be the best curry we have tried yet with bonus starters and deserts (and thermally hot - woop woop), well worth it!

Back on those bikes and back to the pad, off to the East coast tomorrow!Read more
