Momo and Mahiro had travelled by car from Sigiriya to Kandy. They had also visited the sacred Buddhist site of the Temple of the Tooth. After Sigiriya, I met them in person. As we had discussed in Sigiriya, we started the journey at around 10.30 am, and as we were stopping at the Kandy viwe point, we heard a loud noise from the back of our car. As I got out of the car, I noticed that the rear tire was flat. I quickly changed my spare tire, quickly went to a tire shop, quickly put a new tire on it, and we started the journey back to Nuwara Eliya. On the way, we filled our bellies with delicious Sri Lankan food that we had selected for breakfast, went to Ramboda Falls, and looked at the waterfalls and tea bushes on both sides of the road. Then, we stopped at King Wood Tea Estate, where we tasted different types of tea and saw how tea leaves are made. We were quite wet because it had been raining all day. After buying tea, breathing in the fresh air filled with cold mist and enjoying the beauty of nature, we started our journey again. We reached Ella town at around 8 pm, where we had dinner and enjoyed the beauty of Ella town before starting our journey back to Mirissa. The last few hours were very interesting and we talked about many things. By the time we reached Mirissa, it was almost midnight and we were very tired. We said goodbye to each other and took a photo like this. I am grateful to both of you for trusting me and choosing me as your travel companion. 🤝❤️🩹🙏
