I somehow negotiated a car to take me to Weligama that night (I have a lot of Marriott points and hotels in Colombo were too expensive for my liking).

I got to Weligama Marriott and it truly is a fantastic property not to mention really good value.

Then I got sick... I think I ate something bad somewhere and caught a stomach bug.

Then my boss called me. He said that I needed to be in Amsterdam for a meeting on the 11th. That meant flying home, picking up my suit and my things and flying back to Amsterdam.

So anyways a day later I went back to Colombo to catch my flight onwards to Amsterdam, Los Angeles, Hawaii, etc...

However I made a snap decision to fly back home after my flight to Los Angeles and skip the rest of the segments.

I’ll do a longer write up soon on the TR forum.
So you didn't complete it? Ouch. That sucks. Post a link here when you publish a write-up.

I'd never eat or drink in Sri Lanka except at a Marriott.
