Kandy

It’s been a relatively quiet day today so there’s not much to report!

We left the hotel this morning via a herb and spice garden. It was actually quite interesting; what the guide didn’t know about it all wasn’t worth knowing. Whack a bit of lime in everything if you want to get thin! The highlight however was Santa having his shirt removed and being rubbed all over by a hairy Sri Lankan.

We then headed for Kandy where we will be staying for the next two nights and we were taken to the Kandy Cultural Show. What can I say…. They tried hard and it was interesting to see their traditional dancing. However, the hall was like something you’d get in a high school and the one slightly chubbier dancer looked like he might have a heart attack at any minute. We then had fire eaters and walkers. I found it rather uncomfortable whilst he was licking his firey stick and making eyes at me 🤣 The whole thing was a rather ‘interesting’ experience!
