SIM at Bentota versus waiting a town desk — passport in hand, leftover flight brain
20 Aug, Colombo window. Bentota. Two backpacks, leftover flight, notes thin. Not cheap for sport. Not paying the first number at the kerb.

Bentota is a desk and a street. Prepaid pin if the clock is real. Official kerb at BIA, not the first cousin. SIM: passport, morning desk, not a stretched dead map. ATM: if the bank-door line is a pile, walk.
We paid the silly last-bit because the kid was melting. Fine. Pride hunts 187 with suitcases and then owns a tantrum.
Galle Face is a walk. One soda if the kid is melting. Do not camp a four-top for email.
Mount Lavinia sand is a city beach. Leftover rain. Flags if they are up. Stay where you can stand.
Negombo Lewis Place is a night near the airport, not a beach holiday I will invent. Sleep, morning pin.
Fuel if you are asking: 399 / 475 / 382 still the Ada hold. Read the pump board.
Tuk in town: 110 hold, 90 if it is a short hop and you ask. Say it before you sit.
