Woke up hanging like a bat from all the beers last night. There’s something about ice-cold beers in this hot climate that makes them go down far too easy.
We are all heading to Pralin this weekend and staying over at Mango Lodge. Breakfast was a buffet at Praradise Sun for 300 Rupee. Expensive but seriously worth it. Chocolate croissants, cheese and cold ham, omelettes, pancakes, fruit and lots of bacon. Harry always tries to “beat the buffet” by eating as much as he possibly can, but this morning his was not on his usual form.
One other benefit of eating at Paradise Sun is they will let you use their wireless. So no need to go hunting around for an internet cafe this morning.
Mango Lodge is situated on the top of a massive hill. You literally have your hands on your knees when walking up. It’s all worth is when you see the view from the rooms. Absolutely amazing, you really feel like you are in island paradise.
Us guys got a crate of beer for the evening and had to trek it up the massive hill to the lodge. I thought harry might have a heart attack the way he was breathing so hard. The evening turned out to be a guys evening, with all the guys pilling into our room for a fry-up (of which we found out included fruit bat sausages) and beers.
We headed out to the nightclub called Oxygen, us guys and Estee as our quota girl. Harry fed us shooters called “Golden Showers”, of which the name is enough to put you off. It was similar to a Jager-bomb but instead it is a shot of Zambuka in a glass of Lemonade. Estee had one too many of these and ended up being sick and carried out of the club. Harry looked after her outside for most of the night. Sven has a habit of attracting the local girls and his was on particular form this evening. This was probably my best night out while here.
