Kevin: Hey, can we stay in your dorm tonight?

Sakura: Why?

Kevin: Aponia fiddled with an ouija board and cursed ours.

Vill-V: Kalpas doesn’t know how to banish spirits, so he just threw salt at them and yelled “DOES THIS LOOK LIKE A HOTEL TO YOU?!”

Day 109 - 24 December - Habarana > Dambulla

We got up a bit later and had breakfast, packed and checked out and got the same jeep guy to take us to Dambulla cave monastery which had another similarly long climb before getting to them. The caves were pretty amazing iots of them had large carved reclining Buddhas and other carved Buddha and other deities, as well as incredible painted cave walls and ceilings from the 17th century.

After that we got back into the jeep and went to our new hotel that is quite lux. We have been in a bit of a standoff with them as they have been insisting that we get their gala dinner but we didn’t want to go to it so had decided to go to town for dinner.

We had a snack of sandwiches and the famous king coconuts which we had been told about as something that is indigenous to Sri Lanka. The sandwiches were fine but very overpriced. We then went for a walk around the grounds, including finding another swimming pool, and numerous tree houses amongst the villas. We then had a swim before getting a drink at the bar before going out. There was a little choir singing slightly out of tune carols but were very sweet. We went to order a taxi to the town and had another stand off with the manager who said ‘but we have a gala dinner here’. When we said it was too expensive she said she would offer a special price ($40 per head) she then asked our room number, saw she had obviously offered the price over email and then said in a very passive aggressive way ‘when would you like your rickshaw?’

We got our rickshaws to take us to a restaurant, but realised halfway through that they thought it was in the town, which we then only realised wasn’t. So we ended up just going to town to a restaurant that was well reviewed. When we got there it was empty and was playing music very loud, so we went next door to Pizza Hut! It was actually really nice (I got a butter chicken pizza!) and quite funny. After that we got our rickshaws back via a supermarket getting things for the journey the next morning.

Back at the hotel the gala was in, I would say half swing. There was lots of music and people on tables but I wouldn’t say it was full. We got a drink on the edge of the action (including a single arak to share which was strong! Quite like rum) and chatted a bit before going to bed, looking forward to santa and his reindeer coming over the tropics. The music continued till about 12.30 and Nin is convinced they put us so close to the action out of spite for the dinner but it was fine in the end., a much better nights sleep than my ill fated stay in a Vietnam Backpacker Hostel on Christmas Eve 2018.

Day 110 - 25 December - Dambulla > Kandy

We got up and went for a Christmas swim, which was very nice and then after we went to breakfast. It was a bit of a random breakfast but was nice enough. After breakfast we all gave each other our presents which was very nice! We then had to pack up and check out and were then picked up by Kalpa, our usual jeep guys friend as his jeep was in the garage. The drive was about 3 hours and with Nin and I in the back of the jeep, it was a bit bumpy but we made it to our Airbnb which is on a gold course about 40 mins outside Kandy.

The place is really nice and has lots of poured concrete everywhere and a really nice pool. I read my book for a lot of the day, as I had started The Lowland by Jhumpa Lahiri which I had bought in Kochi. We then had a nice swim in the pool and had dinner cooked by the caretaker of the house. After dinner we played a very complicated game that Nna’s sister Sophie had given her for Christmas and en went to bed (Nin and I both read some more before sleeping).

Day 111 - 26 December - Kandy

We got up and had some delicious fruit for breakfast. After that we got in a taxi and went to Kandy itself. We went to a clothes department store very quickly and then o the botanic gardens. I forgot my phone and so had to rawdog the whole experience. It was very hot so we chilled out in the shade of the massive trees. We then got our very hot, ACless taxi back to the house, saying we would stay in our villa all day the next day!

When we got back I read some more and then went for a swim, after which I finished my book! We then had dinner and payed the Chameleon which is another game that Sophie had bought. This was slightly more successful. After which we went to bed.

Day 112 - 27 December - Kandy

We really didn’t do much in the day. We had all dedicated this day our chill out in the beautiful airbnb day and were determined to enjoy it.

We woke up and had breakfast in the terrace and then I read and played some chess. The main excitement came when Nin said ‘are you ready to defend he house from the intruders?’he intruders was a family of monkeys who were having a nice time by the pool and wrestling and swinging in the trees. We then had lunch and they then started climbing up the house and looking round the corner of the balcony. We shooed them away and Pushpa, our very nice cook threw some rocks at them and went to see if the pool was okay.

After relaxing a little more, we decided to try and do our exercise which we had anted to do before a swim. I did some stretching and Nin did some skipping, we went down to the pool and the monkeys promptly came back, all moving moving independently but as if they were in unison out to make mischief. Nin and Sophie had a swim with the monkeys coming in and out of shot. I then came down and had a bit of a swim in a lul, but got out when what looked like the biggest of the group started walking around the edge slightly menacingly and some of the other males joined.

After a while a neighbour must have got annoyed with the because we heard multiple loud bangs like gun shots but probably fire crackers that scared them off properly because my feeble attempts to clap at them did nothing.

We had a very nice final dinner in the house and went to bed quite early.

Day 113 - 28 December - Kandy > Colombo

We got up and had another breakfast of fruit and omelettes,soaking up the view. We packed up and gave Sophie some of the things we d but didn’t want to carry for the rest of the trip (my suit for me). We relaxed before out taxi arrived and we all piled in.

The journey was generally uneventful. The most notable thing was the steep decent from Kandy that took about 30 mins all in all but was a taken very slowly but most cars. The view on both sides was running and you didn’t really see what the decent had been like till we got to the bottom of it and looked back at the hills. We also stopped for a king coconut juice, although i was still listening to my podcast and in the pictures I ended up looking like a teenager being very antisocial.

We got to our hotel and checked in. Following that we went to a shop nearby that Sophie had been recommended which was effectively a Sri Lanka reduce shop We then to a couple of tuk tuks to the restraurant we had booked that was very nice in a courtyard on a lane. We had lots of small plates and a couple of large ones. Highlights include a lobster with a kind of seafood ravioli, a chicken kabab, some mackerel with a horseradish cream and a sort of ceviche like fish dish. It had lots of Sri Lankan spins to it and the cocktails were really nice. My fav was rum, tamarind and chilli.

We were very full and went back to the hotel and had a drink in Sophie’s room before going to bed very stuffed.

Day 114 - 29 December - Colombo > Bangkok

We woke up very early to go and say goodbye to Sophie who was getting an early flight. We then had a coffee and went to the gym which was really nice. I did a bit of a run then a stretch. We then packed, said goodbye to Taru and Ian Nina’s parents and checked out ourselves. It was very hot and we needed a drink so we went to the roof bar for a lime soda before leaving our bags and heading out.

We looked through a couple of shops and then went for a drink in a restaurant near the place we had been the night before. We had a tamarind frozen Margherita which was very delicious. We then walked back to the hotel and and got our bags and a taxi to the airport. We were very early but were going to sit in a lounge and chill out but the the bag check did not open or an hour and a half, so we had to in departures. It was actually fine and I managed to get through most of The Country Girls by Edna O’Brien. We did then drop our bags and went to the lounge where we had a beer and a cold buffet and sat in a comfy chair.

The administrative centre of the Kinnaur district is located in Reckong Peo, sometimes referred to as Peo, which is smack dab in the middle of the Himalayas. Hotel the Buro The Gate is the best hotel in Kalpa. This tranquil town is widely known for its apple orchards and is located 2,300 metres above sea level, 260 kilometres from Shimla. Even in contemporary times, the Kinnauri people still follow a variety of traditions. Apple orchards, big deodar trees, and pine trees are some additional noteworthy characteristics that contribute to the area's allure and are some of its other key attractions. From Reckong Peo, it is easy to observe the Shivaling rock and Kailash peak, two of the Himalayas' most stunning natural structures.

According to historical records, Reckong Peo was born on May 1st, 1960, and his previous name was Kinnaura. The Tibetan Guge Kingdom governed the region from the ninth to the twelfth centuries, giving rise to the name Guge. The district's area was divided into seven sections once the authority was founded; these divisions were all known to as Sat Khund. Following that, Akbar seized control of the region, and it soon joined the Mughal Empire. The district, which later adopted the name Chini Tehsil after the Mughal Empire fell, played a significant role in the neighborhood's development. There was a District Chini Tehsil.

There are many facilities in Reckong Peo, including pharmacies, grocery stores, and stores that sell tech items. The main market is home to many inexpensive hotels, with rooms ranging in price from 300 to 500 Indian Rupees. Hotel Buro the Gate is the best hotel in kalpa, Recong Peo. While none of these hotels offer parking, the opposite is true. There are a few resorts located along the highway leading to Kalpa. Because most tourists choose to stay in Kalpa, which is 13 kilometres distant, Reckong Peo has fewer resorts.
