Luxuary in Kandy - a true backpacking experience

To ease us into the holiday, we decided to book into one of the most expensive Ayurvedic Spa Retreat and to give Ayurvedic massages a second chance. This time we booked WOMEN!!! No more groping for us!!

Ventured out to the town centre in search of alcohol and fun times and discovered a party of about 10 thousand people. However, no alcohol, no fun and dodgy food. Yes, it was Buddha's birthday and he didn't want a drink and anyone else to for that matter!

After a fried Pot Noodle and dodging loads of police, we decided to retreat back to our retreat :) For a non-alcoholic cocktail :( and a night swim! For some reason the waiter did come and suggest that a tuktuk man might go and get us a bottle of 'Black Market' Gin for the right price :) We must have looked desperate swimming round the pool!
