My husband and I arrive into Colombo airport @ 2am on Friday (coming from USA). We have a driver picking us up and driving us to our hotel in Colombo (~1 hour away). We will likely check into our hotel around 3:30-4am.

We hope to get some rest, take a shower, and then check out of our hotel around 12pm, explore Colombo (Jami ul Alfar Mosque, Gangaramaya Temple), and then head to Galle and spend ~3 hours there, to explore and grab dinner... then the driver will drive us after dinner to Ahangama (we'll spend 3 whole days there).

Do you think this itinerary is a bit too much on Day 1?

Or, do you think we should visit Galle for the afternoon as a day trip while we're in Ahangama? If so, would PickMe be easily accessible b/w Ahangama-Galle (round trip)?

We aren't looking to rent a tuk tuk for in between each city but more once we hit a destination. Which city would be best/safest/easiest/more convenient to rent a tuktuk?

- Ahangama- 2 whole days (hoping to travel to Weligama and Mirissa or Unawatuna)

- Hiriketya- 3 whole days

- Ella 1 full day (Nine Arches Bridge, Little Adam's Peak, waterfalls)

What are your favorite pieces to take on vacation where it's hot and humid for tropical getaway?

We'll be traveling for 2 weeks in mid-November; we are expecting hot and humid temps. We'd prefer to bring only 5-7 days' worth of clothing and get laundry services done.

Do you recommend laundry services from the hotel? (This service is notoriously expensive in the US, but not sure if it's the same in SL).

My husband and I will be traveling for 2 weeks in November. Flying into Colombo and will be staying in Ahangama, Hiriketya, Ella, and Sigirya/Dambulla- staying in each town for ~2-3 nights each. Is it easier to hire (1) private driver for our 2 week stay or use PickMe app and find drivers to drive us between each city?

We will use PickMe to travel between (for example...) Ahangama to Weligama and/or Mirissa, etc... but I'm asking more for the longer stretches of driving between these major cities.

Try to make Galbi and haven’t been able to find this…

I do a weekly ride with a GF and we usually schedule our classes on Friday for our Sat rides. Sometimes we need to edit the date (move to Sunday). When I go into the app, the only edit option I see is to “remove” the class- when I only want to take the same class and move it from Sat to Sun.

How do I do this on the app?

I know Dollar Store will blow up Mylar balloons with helium but not latex. Do you have any recommendations where we can get both latex and Mylar balloons blown up with helium?

I love my Dieux reusable eye patches, but unsure what eye cream to pair with it. I love Dieux products in general, and am interested in trying their Auracle eye serum but it's not cheap. I am mid 40s and don't have dark undereyes, but do have fine lines and need hydration; looking for something that has peptides and is hydrating but cannot do retinol/retinal b/c I have severely dry eyes.

Please recommend what you love using, especially for under reusable eye patches.
