Because of one thing or another (tumours, bereavement, exhaustion) we had to wait until February of this year to go on honeymoon. But it was the best time ever. We went Sri Lanka for three weeks; two weeks travelling around and one week in the capital so that S could meet some of my relatives.
You know how you can build things up and then fear that they won't live up to your expectations? Well, our honeymoon exceeded all expections for both of us. We climbed an ancient rock fortress, we watched the sun rise over a cloud forest, we did a six-mile trek to one of the highest points on the island, we climbed a waterfall, we saw elephants in the wild, just taking a bath in a lake and we went whale-watching and saw a blue whale. A blue whale!!! It was incredible and unforgettable.
Reader, you should visit Sri Lanka, it won't disappoint!
