After breakfast we saw that there were a few choice lounges open by the pool. We decided to claim the lounges right away and we thought we could take turns heading up to the room to get into our suits. However we started hearing some drums and some singing. Who knew that we would have ring side seating for a Sri Lanka traditional wedding. We watched the wedding and then lounged pool side for the majority of the day. We eventually headed up to the room and ordered in. We got some pizza so we could take the leftovers on our Safari that we will be taking tomorrow.
