We finished the day in style at the 'wrong hotel'. It had to happen really and was the seal to a perfect and funny day.
We had decided to visit the Hill Club in Nuwara Eliya which is an ancient colonial hotel that still observes all the formalities of the past. I had been there 10 years ago with my exhusband and thought it would be interesting to retrace a few steps.
As we walked up the path to the sprawling mock-tudor building in the dark I commented how it appeared to have changed over time. The grounds looked smaller and the hotel looked more modern. It wasn't until we were inside that we realised we were in a different hotel entirely.
They had carpet and beer so we stayed. It turned into a really good night anyway.
Getting things wrong can sometimes prove so right.
