Dec. 2nd Peradeniya

Met up with Tolo in Kandy, and had a general catch up since we last saw each other in Leon.

Nov. 30th 2015 Sri Lanka

I arrived in Sri Lanka to rain. I thought the monsoon was over ! On leaving the airport I was told by the army of tuktuk drivers that the bus I wanted had left etc etc.
Benjamin my host for the 1st 2 nights had told me where to get the bus I needed, so after asking directions a couple of times and a 1km walk I took the 3 hour ride, unsure if the conductor understood where I wanted to get off. After a short wait in the rain and a call to Benjamin, a tuktuk arrived and delivered me to his home.
After meeting the family and a meal of string hoppers and curry, I necked a couple of valium and slept through to 7.30 next morning. My way of getting past jet lag.
