We are now on the tour. I am really happy to have these tour mates they are certainly making this a wonderful experience.
Yesterday started with the fish market which was just disgusting I will not go back but I suppose it was good to see. Next we loaded into the van and headed to a middle class family home where we got to see how they turn coconut husk into rope as well as take the liquid from the coconut flowers to drink for alcohol or turn into trecel. We then got to cook prawn Curry with a woman and learn their style of cooking. It was a great experience.
Next we got to our hotel we were originally going to hike to the Dambulla came temple but our guide was concerned about rain so instead we went to a wholesale fruit and vegetable market and then got to sample fruit from a stand. It was quite fun.
We decided to go to dinner together but first a bar for a beer (rum and coke for me this time). We went upstairs for dinner and had a great time chatting.
This morning was an early start to Lion Rock which was a palace. It was not as difficult as I was expecting however we were there early and beat much of the heat later when it was warmer and more crowded I think it would be very difficult.
