Our album of Galle photos, all 31 of them, can be seen through the flickr album below:
The only downside to our amazing arrangements for the restful part of our holiday in/near Galle was the requirement to move on a couple of times. Yet the transfers were all smooth and the journeys only a few minutes, so we felt in retrospect it had been worth it. This was the first of those transfer days.
Again rise a little later. Get most of the packing done and take massage again at eight. Daisy has head and foot massage with Milton, while I had the full works with Roshan.
Then again we take breakfast while the oils settle.
Ged swims and then sunbathes for a while. Daisy showers and packs some more. We are collected at 13:00 – fond farewells with Praseeth, Roshan and Wanitha.
Then a 15 to 20 minute drive east to Thale, where [at The Frangipani Tree] we are greeted by our Polish hosts from Krakow, Wojciech Raus and Justyna.
Some confusion over our room, so we sit in a shady breezy spot & nibble some bread and hummus over a beer. We also order lobster for our dinner tonight.
We then go to our room and unpack. Ged takes a short late afternoon stroll but mostly we read before dinner. Daisy also ordered prawn samosas to share as a nibble, but veggie ones came by mistake. Comps!
Will try the prawn one is another day.
The lobster was delicious. Always wash down with a bottle of Valdivieso Chardonnay.
Daisy also tries a desert described optimistically as a pavlova, but all in all it was a lovely dinner.
