the prep...

Less than 10 days before the trip, everyone are excited and the task list is narrowed down to 3 tasks : money changing, packing and drug preparation.
There is no direct money changing for LKR(ruppe) at the local bank; thence a interchanging to USD is needed (darn, forex loss x2 noted…). I had bought USD last week at the lowest rate and I would need to cash it this week.
Luggage packing would be challenge as we might not be able to our laundry during the visit. Most of the time, we would be lodging in Nurwara Eliya where the humidity is 80%...and the temperature was 12-28C. My plan is simple - > to buy a box fan (average RM60) at the airport shop and blow it 24hrs over the washed cloth…

Drug preparation is a challenge as the tour comprised of 22 persons and the focus would be acute gastroenteritis- > rule 1 -> no iced drink from the roadside, but frankly said, I am eager to try out the cendol-like farluda….
