The excitement is building, will everything work out - will the flight be on time? Will I catch the connecting flight in Abu Dhabi? All the items on the inner to-do list have been checked off - vaccination, visa, printed boarding passes, passport ready, carry-on luggage organized so that everything can be found easily. Off to the airport we go - a 14-hour flight. Berlin - Abu Dhabi - Colombo.
Arrival in Colombo early in the morning, everything has gone smoothly so far, a little delay in Abu Dhabi, but nothing major. But then the first shock - my suitcase is not there! And this in a situation - where all I want to do is shower and sleep. But there is no choice, I have to deal with it somehow. I filed a complaint, the staff promised me that my luggage would be back with me in the evening - little did I know at this point that this story would drag on for much longer.
I saw you already waiting in the reception area, happy, with tears in my eyes I ran to you and fell into your arms. You had already arrived a week earlier, we had one more week ahead of us before you would return home and I would be at home in Sri Lanka for 6 months.
After the air-conditioned arrival halls of the airport, the outside area felt like a sauna - you start sweating immediately, the high temperatures and the high humidity also affected me. Right from the start, overwhelmed by so many impressions and there are still more to come...
So let's go on an adventure in Sri Lanka - Greetings
