Recuperating in Colombo

The day after we got back to Colombo we headed to Mount Lavinia to chill on the beach; unfortunately the sun went in just as we got there. To make matters worse the restaurant wouldn't serve as alcohol for some bizarre legal reason as it was between lunch and dinner time.
The water is pretty dirty around Colombo so it's not as enticing as it may seem.
The lack of afternoon drinks meant we had to make up for it in the evening; the fact I'm holding a glass of gin means I may have been slightly the worse for wear, although it doesn't look like I'm the only one.
