Finishing one journey and beginning another

This morning was me and Taylor's last day together. We had breakfast together at our guesthouse which was really pretty. We didn't really have any plans this afternoon other than we had to catch the train at 2:30 so we just chilled around the guest house until 11 when we had to check out. We we wanted to have our last swim at the beach but our insane sunburns made us change our minds. We packed up and took a tuk tuk into galle fort to our favorite cafe. The guys were there waving as soon as our tuk tuk pulled over by the cafe. We didn't been have to order, we'd been here long enough for the waiters to have us Sussed. One of the boys looks as though he's only 15 or 16 and he's so lovely! Whenever he's free he always comes over and tries to speak his best English. He asked if we were coming back to Sri Lanka and we said maybe one day and he said "you must come back to galle". If I were to move to Sri Lanka I would here and marry him (sorry Zac). We said our goodbyes to the guys who worked at the cafe and before we left the manager asked us if we'd seen turtles while we'd been here and we said no so he took us out to the outside balcony area where there was a big concrete tank thing full of baby turtles. We'd bee here for 3 days and not once had we seen them! They were so cute but it was so odd to see them! They said when they get older they will set them free into the ocean. We said our goodbyes promising we would be back one day and then got a tuk tuk to the train station. Taylor was getting off at ambaglangoda and I was getting off only at Colombo but it ment we were still on the same train ride. We got on the train and had such mares with our hugely heavy bags and this really nice guy ended us helping us turn. Turns out the nice guy was heading to Colombo with his mate as well so I felt a little relieved that I had someone to share a taxi with to the airport. We got to ambaglangoda and me and Taylor said our goodbyes. We both cried and all the Sri Lankans stared. As usual. The rest of the train ride back to Colombo was so pretty! We trained back right along to coastline in the late afternoon so the sun was really low in the sky. I had some weirdo man sit next to me asking creepy questions and asked for my address and phone number. Being the skilled travelor I am I gave fake info and he gave me his. When we finally got to Colombo I met the guys outside the train and we got a taxi for 10$ Each to take us to the airport. They had a really late flight as well so we ended up going to the beach and going out for dinner before we went to the airport. The 2 guys were really interesting! They work in the mines in Australia and basically work one week travel one week! They've basically travelled the world and there only in there 20s. They shouted me for dimmer cause they knew I was a poor student which was really nice. We got taxi to the airport and we both checked in and they managed to sneak me into there lounge. At 12:30am I has to board my flight so I said thanks and said my goodbyes and left. Today makes it my last day in Sri Lanka:( I've had the most amazing time both volunteering, meeting some life long friends and traveling some amazing places in Sri Lanka. My list I made before I came to Sri Lanka I managed to tick off all the things I wanted to do other than climb Adams peak but it's just not the season but me and Taylor have promised that we would come back in pilgrimage season and climb it. Although the volunteering wasn't as fulfilling as my last volunteer trip to Cambodia I definitely had such a heart warming experience working in the disabled and babies orphanage. Tribal week was definitely a challenge but gave me a huge eye opener to the kind of lifestyle of the tribes in Sri Lanka. Although this is the end of my journey In Sri Lanka it's now just the start of my 3 week holiday with Zac in Thailand which will definitely be a very different type of holiday.
