Introduction
Our first night in Sri Lanka! 🇱🇰 We land in Colombo in the early evening and head straight to a beautiful Hilton-managed serviced apartment 🏨 perfect for families! After a quick room tour, we hit the streets and stumble upon an amazing local restaurant serving authentic Sri Lankan food at jaw-droppingly low prices 🍛💰. Then it’s off to a nearby grocery store for snacks 🛒 before we end the night. The next morning, we relax poolside 🏊♂️. It’s a warm welcome to Sri Lanka and a glimpse of what’s ahead on this family adventure! 🌏
