Hey guys, we're just updating to let you all know that we've left Hikkaduwa after three weeks there. We felt that we wanted to experience the city life here in Sri Lanka before we left the country so that we would be able to experience both sides on this amazing place.
Anyway, we left for Mount Lavinia (close to Colombo, if anyone knows the difference between these two places please let us know, cause on the map they look like the same place!) yesterday afternoon. But before that, we had to have one final lunch with the locals that have been our friends and who also have helped us loads during our stay. To the left we have Ruwan, our tuktuk driver/friend whom has gotten a liking for Swedish music after hours and hours of brainwashing from our part, in the middle we have Sunnil, our dear friend and tuktuk driver, and finally to the right we have Kolin. If it weren't for Ruwan, we would never have met Kolin, and we would never have been able to find the families nor the orphanage to help. Thanks Kolin!
Sunnil drove us from Hikkaduwa to Amalangoda, the next town after Hikkaduwa towards Colombo so that we would be able to find emptier buses to travel to Mount Lavinia to. After that, the bus ride took about 2 hours, and when we were dropped of at Dehiwala bus station, we were welcomed with chaos. Not bad chaos, but the pleasant type of chaos that exists in highly populated cities. A huge difference compared to the calm life in Hikkaduwa. Anyway, we're currently living in a guest house here in Mt. Lavinia until our flights departure on Tuesday!
Write to you guys soon!
Chelsea & Harris
