Then I get a little confused about where to go....
1st option
Going south through Tangalle 1 night - Mirissa 2 nights - Galle and ending 2 nights around Negombo to catch our early flight back
2nd option
Going south to Kataragama 1 night - Tangalle 1 night - Unawatuna 2 nights and ending with a night Negombo...
The more I think about it, the more I get confused. So many things to do there... Turtles in Tangalle, whalespotting in Mirissa, the famous stilt fishermen, Galle fort, relaxing, aaarrrrgrrghhhhhh !!!!
I think we'll see when we get there.... Or do you have any suggestions ??
Anyway, I believe this will be a trip not to forget ! I'm so looking forward to it, it's making me crazy ! 2 days ago, I recieved a call from a guesthouse from Kandy, it feld like I was allready there. The guy named Malik was so friendly and helpfull. Told me that I had to change my plans because of the Cricket World Cup in Kandy !! Thanks to him, I will not be there for the increased prices and lots and lots of people for this event ! Thank you Malik from Palm Garden.
