Having finally made it to Sri Lanka and on advice NOT to stay in Negombo, we decided to venture there anyway :) Typical!! Found an 'interesting' hotel called the Icebear - a little bit of Suissness in Sri Lanka!! Nice hotel, shame it was empty save for the 3 ducks!
Had what can only be described as an expensive grope. It wasn't a pleasure but at least I didn't have mine in the dark.....LOL Jen was blind groped! If you hadn't guessed it, it was our first experiece of an Ayurvedic Massage - it does get better :)
The most positive thing about the hotel is that it actually serves alcohol. It's amazing how obsessed you become about alcohol when it is banned due to a festival. Having wandered into a restaurant with a forlorn look on our faces, an Italian waiter took pity on us and offered us a Cappucino at the bar - nudge, nudge, wink, wink and we managed a swift beer! In Cappucino mugs and listed on the bill as 'Cappucino' :)
Interesting walk back to the hotel with 2 dogs attached back to back to back via one tail - you work it out. We are still traumatized by the experience. We were then followed by a drunk bloke on a bike and chased down a alley by a mad Tuktuk driver - managed to give him the slip by running over the beach - where the FCO advice women not to go alone!!!
