Thursday 21st June 2012 - Uppaveli, Trincomalee, Sri Lanka

Although Dee Dee had managed to stay one more night yesterday, today he definitely needed to go because his parents were really angry at him for staying away for so long.  I wanted to work on my tan so we headed to our sunbed and spent the day there talking.  Sanduru went and bought us rice and curry and we just chilled eating that on the terrace. Morgan and Evan were also leaving today so everyone dumped their bags in my room and we all hung out on my terrace. Dee Dee then took me to a quiet spot on the beach to say goodbye and told me that he was going to miss me. I was sad to say goodbye to him. We switched details and planned to meet up again. Apparently his university had a rugby match in Kandy around the 28th that he was going to so he invited me to meet him there. I ended up giving him my flip flops because Sandaru had lost both his and Dee Dees ones when he was drunk so Dee Dee was going to walk barefooted. Sandaru had found some other battered 'ancient' random ones on the beach that he was using which were so funny. The heels had been worn down completely that they had holes! I said goodbye to them and Evan and Morgan and then went to sleep for an hour. When I woke up I chilled with a couple who Dee Dee had introduced me to and had beer with them and ate fried rice. Their names were Sabina and Christopher. They were in their 40s and from Austria.  Sabina worked as the regional manager for whole of Europe for a company that specialises in office furniture. She had been married for 15years previously but they split on mutual terms after realising that everything was just too comfortable. She decided she was too young to settle for comfortability so now she was dating Chris who was an events manager. They had been together for like two years and made it a point to travel for at least one month every year.  Christopher asked me if I was going to see Dee Dee again to which I replied that I would love to. He told me that it was a bad idea as nothing could ever come of it because of the class difference so I should probably just stay away. He was probably right.
