The following is a review of my summer 2005 holiday to Sri Lanka and The Maldives
If you decide to go here do not travel by charter flight use a scheduled airline as otherwise it will spoil the first few days of your holiday.
If you come to come to Sri Lanka you must see the elephants. They are such fun graceful creatures. You can feed them and they sniff out food. When I saw them there were some baby elephants who put their trunks in my pockets to get to me apples. I was also surrounded at one point by 4 adult elephants and even had chance to feed the babies milk.
The food in Sri Lanka is also very surprising although it is spicy & hot it does not burn the mouth and the black curries are extremely tasteful. The locals also have curry rolls for breakfast just what the stomach needed at 6am but when in Rome!

The Maldives
I would have to say the Maldives are one of the few places that I have been for which the brochures dont actually do it justice. They are in fact paradise on earth and are one of the most beautiful places that I have had the chance to visit. I would recommend a two centre holiday as there is only so much sun-bathing you can do and I would also recommend going all-inclusive as extras can soon add up. I stayed on Meerufenushi but I was lucky enough to be given a chance to go a all expenses paid trip on a 80ft yacht around three other islands it was absolutely incredible so beautiful. The snorkelling was great as well the colours of the fish are incredible.
Another good thing about the Maldives is that you do not need to wear any shoes for a whole week.
