Sri Lanka
We love Sri Lanka, it is a beautiful, sunny exotic island, with smiley faces everywhere, spicy food and low cost accommodation.
The last week has felt a bit like a holiday, lots of coastal cycle rides, festivals and some amazing views.
We are heading in land now and the terrain is becoming a little more challenging especially in the heat but we are loving it.
Not much to report so some interesting facts for you – we have cycled over 3,000 miles, we’re over budget (no surprise, not helped by some unexpected costs from home), we’ve both lost at least a stone in weight, we’ve not had a hair cut in 4 months (Gary looks very funny with curly hair, check the photos) and we’re still enjoying our adventure.
Hope all is well at home
love and kisses
Ginette and Gary
