Sri Lanka Curry and Rice Adventure - Day 14 – Arugam Bay > Nuwara Eliya

Till to the exhausting crazy late night, we depart around 12 noon to Nuwara Eliya. After an emotional farewell with Sarah and Paul, we headed our way to Nuraweliya. Since we miss the early bus to Nurwara Eliya this morning, Cat, Kat and I decided to get a tuk tuk from Beach Hut to Monaragala, from there we catch a bus to Badulla, then from Badulla to Wellamada, lastly from Wellamada to Nuwara Eliya. It’s a long tedious journey, so once we reached there, we checked into the hotel that provides tour to Adam’s peak which costs Rps: 7500 for 3 people. Seriously, the owner is untrustworthy; he likes to mark up his price anyhow. Since it’s a late at night, we have no choice but to stay a night. Funny how I come to Nuwara Eliya, it always a sleep over.

Sleep

Single tree hotel – Triple room - Rps: 2200
Terrible boss whom jacks up the price as he like. Room is decent. Can’t believe my guide has such high praises for this hotel. The tour package is overprice and over promise and undelivered. It’s not the the right place to stay, it feels unsafe as Katy puts it.
