The night in the Capsule commenced being a bit stressful with Bianca and I scared of the sounds around us and we were a little bit claustrophobic. But we ended up sleeping and it was one of the best sleeps I had during the trip so we decided to spend the next two nights. Also because we are lazing and couldn't be bothered to move our bags down so many stairs. We dressed and organised ourselves going to the bus station with a breakfast package the hostel had given...

Today was a massive travel day. We ate breakfast and checked out of lucky star early in time for the 9.20 train to Kandy. Claire and I visited the medical centre (next to train station) and picked up some so called pills to make us feel better. Literally we spent almost the rest of the day sitting on the train. We trained through some of the most incredible and scenic views I have ever seen. At around 4 pm we arrived in Kandy. We caught a Tuktuk to our accommodat...

The view from the top was stunning so green and so many mountain tops. We took some photos before rushing down to get to the 9...

We then went back to our hostel to pack up our things before going on an adventure to find the secret beach. It was about 15 minute walk through the harbour but the secret beach didn't disappoint. It was a stunning small cove with sand. Only beach we had seen in ages with sand. Th...
