It's wasn't a well planned trip - but I'am glad we managed to drive safe with a driver who don't know the road to Kandy/Nuwara Eliya nor Colombo as well as to drive smoothly without hurting the passengers. From the little I know he never knew the vehicle also.

We managed to load the crew from busy Katunayake airport on Saturday morning and drive thru Minuwangoda short-cut to Kandy road, where I gave a lousy presentation of what is Sri Lanka which was corrected by my wife resulting myself became stupid (which always happen)

Kandy journey wasn't that bad, though the city was crowded with pilgrims from various parts of the country stormed to see and worship the "Tooth of Load Buddha". When we went out in-search of food my friendly consultant got shit(ted) from a low flying bird and was stinking all the way which I didn't was to describe in detail. Yeah his wife knew about it and was joking silently and apparently it was my fault it seems

After showing the "temple of tooth" and the palace museum to the crew our next destination was Nuwara Eliya. Well this is where the driver's mother was mentioned few times when he drove like a crazy pig. I was about to take my heart out from my mouth as I was seated in the front, when the drive drove towards a speeding car which came from a different direction. I didn't want to express my feelings and kept to myself, just because I was afraid my friends will get pissed and scared. Though when we reached, that has all ready happened.

Gregory Lake was crowded and the place we night-out was in the 4th floor. My friends mom's legs were not in good shape but she didn't wanted to hassle us (I knew it). She is a great women - strong/stubborn/straight and good mother to a good friend. Most of all she knew how to cook excellent food. Her husband (my friends farther) was a nature lover and a good man with a good heart. I wish I will meet him again to talk/discuss something and I feel I have already met him someday in my past life. My wife got a friendly companion (which is my friends and my plan - which was a success) for the journey. Ohh god, she is a nutty character which suites my friend 100%, who is very tidy & neat. No doubt they were also just like me and my wife @ home.

It was beautiful and the food was awesome !!! I wish I can start cooking like them. Thank you very much for refreshing taste that bought to my hunger (my mind). It was me and my wife’s pleasure to meet you all. Uncle and Aunty - you shall live a long life and we all shall build our friendship. Thank you again.
