Sri Lanka with G Adventures - Day Four

11/21/2016

0 Comments

 
I had the best intentions to write about what I had seen and done in Sri Lanka while I was still in Sri Lanka.  We definitely had some busy days but the real reason is that I prefer to have a drink and socialize at the end of the day versus going back to my room by myself to write.  I'll definitely tell the full story, it will just take me a little longer.

It still amazes me how beautiful Sri Lanka is when you get out of the cities.  In the mountains of the wet zone of Sri Lanka, there seems to be another breathtaking view around every turn.  I’ve also seen more waterfalls in a small area than I’ve ever seen before.  ​

It's my third day in Sri Lanka and I'm still waking up at 4 am.  The only good thing about that is our 5:30 am meeting time (which I would normally hate) didn't seem so bad.  The early morning was because we were hiking Horton Plains National Park and if you don't finish early enough, the cloud cover will ensure that you see nothing, and if you're hiking 6 miles, you definitely want to be able to enjoy the views.

If you're reading this wondering if you missed the Day One post, don't worry, you did not.  Here's Day One in a nutshell:
  • Landed in Colombo around 3:30 after traveling for about 19 hours
  • Took a 40 minute taxi to the Ramada Colombo Hotel, a nice hotel a block from the beach
  • Welcome meeting with G Adventures CEO (Chief Experience Officer aka Leader of the Tour
  • Dinner

Day Two was much more interesting so I'll start there.

Visiting Sri Lanka on a G Adventures Tour

I never thought that I was a group tour person. I imagined being crammed on a big bus with a bunch of people that I had nothing in common with, spending hours driving around and stopping at sites just long enough to snap a picture. Definitely not my idea of fun!
