The Wanderer Returns!

Back.

Boo hoo.

Not feeling too good due to lack of sleep and body being completely disorientated.

My band held up well during the holiday. I don't think I have put on much weight, if any. I still feel the same and if the photo is anything to go by, doesn't look like I have either... so that's the main thing!

Sri Lanka was FABULOUS. Everyone should go there! Its an unbelievable place and the people are wonderfully warm and made us welcome like no other nation ever has. Anyone worrying about the Tamil problems or the effects after the Tsunami should just no worry. We felt safe and secure with all the police, army etc out and about on the streets (much more than in the UK!) and rather than being threatening it was actually a nice thing to see, and they smiled too!

The effects of the Tsunami were not visible at all really where we were. We travelled along the cost road (Galle Road) and the driver told us where it had come to and what had happened etc, but everything had been re built or was being re built. There was a little more obvious destruction nearer to Galle apparently, but it was again, mostly re built. If I hadn't known there had been a Tsunami, I would not have known if you get what I mean.

The hotel was wonderful and the staff were AMAZING. I would recommend this place to everyone.

Anyway, band wise, I ate everything, curry included! There was nothing I found aggravated my band and I have no incidents on the plane from swelling of the band or anything like that. I had no problems at all whilst I was there and I didn't feel deprived. I did not think about what I was eating, just ate when I was hungry, and I didn't have any guilt either. I had pudding most meals, and just ate what I fancied. There was always plenty left on my plate at the end of a meal and I felt contented in all respects.

I will weigh in on Monday 11th June and let you know how things have gone weight wise.
