We finished school Friday and headed to the airport and then Sri Lanka! I have always wanted to visit Sri Lanka, well since I knew it existed anyways (think my poor Canadian education probably never mentioned it). I have heard so many wonderful things through out the years and the first 24 hours did not disappoint. I booked us into a cheap hotel with rave reviews for the first night in Colombo. I just admit my family handled the place much better than I would have had Luis booked it. But true to the reviews the owner was so helpful and friendly. He set up our taxi for the next day to Ella and was super helpful.We left Saturday morning and headed to Ella. The drive was longer than expected but I enjoyed watching the Sri Lankan world go past as we drove. We arrived to our hotel in late afternoon. It immediately felt like we arrived into Mindo, Ecuador. The scenery and climate are so similar. We just hung out at the hotel and had the most wonderful dinner. Sebastian loved his coconut cauliflower flower soup and in fact had a second one back in our room. We were all fast asleep at 8pm and slept 12 full hours!
