Home Safe and Sound!

After spending two nights in Colombo the group packed up their bags and headed to the airport at 2.30am on Sunday morning. It then came to say an emotional goodbye to Cobra and God and get on the plane to Mumbai. The 2 hour flight was a huge blur as the majoirty of the group slept through the takeoff and landing. We then had to wait in the airport for 5 hours. Some of us took up the opportunity to eat KFC for breakfast and others fell asleep on the airport chairs. 

After all the waiting we jumped on to the final plane which would take us home. The 9 hour flight was filled with sleeping, eating and movie watching. Finally, at 5.30pm the group landed on the solid cold ground of heathrow airport. We whizzed through the border, customs and baggage reclaim. Then in true cinematic style we ran through the gates to be reunited with our family and friends. 

Although it is great to be home we are missing the smiles of the Sri Lankan people (especially Cobra and God) and the warmth of the Sri Lankan sunshine. We have all made friendships with the students in Sri Lanka that will never be lost (thanks to facebook). We will carry the memories that we have made in Sri Lanka with us for the rest of our lives.

I would just like to say thank you for everyone who has read the blog daily and followed our journey in Sri Lanka. Even though we did hit some technical difficulites it was been a pleasure to write the blog along with all the other memebers of the team everyday. 

Beyond Boundaries is a brilliant company so please feel free to like them on Facebook and support what they are doing.
