You should go to Horton's plains. I guess you missed that.
Sri Lanka looking like little UK ♥
love from Tamil Nadu 🇮🇳
Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 is beautiful country enjoy my friend ❤
What a cool city with a LOT of history. Looks like a clean city from what we saw in your vlog. Thanks for sharing!
Awesome video Chris and Carol. One of the best Sri Lanka videos we've seen yet. Always excited when you guys post a new video
Thanks for taking us along
Thanks so much!
SPF 15 = 93% sunblock; SPF 30 = 97; SPF 50 = 98 it's not a linear scale. I always buy Baby Formula less chemicals. Good job!
Cheers, when we use spf 50 we barely change color at all so seems to block almost everything
This country is peaceful and people seemed calm, they are going on their daily rituals! So glad that they haven't drawn the attention of the super power!
seems like you dunno much about this, sri lanka is stuck between usa china for so long as sri lanka is essential for global trade and its strategic location, and not just those 2 now even india is making probs there even tho its not a superpower it do the most harm compared to us and china
Unfortunately it has, and is now 😢 Continuously throughout history others have been interfering , so it's a miracle the culture survived for so long
@@skipper2594China is the best US is better, India is the worst, they were the ones who ruined Sri Lanka. Even todate they are stealing Sri Lanka's marine resources from its Exclusive Economic Zone which is estimated to be about US$ 8-9 billion annually.
But we have Theeee..... Prophet Jerome FernandooooOo. He has direct contacts with his God. Unlimited access. He can cure people, he can make cricket match win, he can..... uh 🤔 (I can't remember but he can do a lot of things).
@@skipper2594usa ?
Sri Lanka is very clean country
going to sri lanka in 2 weeks! Im going with very very little money, but I teach English online for just a few bucks on the hour, so by the grace of God, I can settle there for a bit
Enjoy Sri Lanka
You can manage there with little cash in hand if you plan properly.
Find a good guide there with good language skill .
That beer and glass of wine on that beach with that spectacular sunset!luv it❤,that's the life Chris and Carol ❤
Colombo changed lot! So many tall buildings & looks awesome with lovely beaches. Nice to see both of you had vegetarian meals, happy to know Carol loves vegetarian,Carol's one is south indian thali & yours is north indian thali. The prices are very reasonable & budget friendly. What is expensive is visa charges, 100 USD is too high.Architecture of mosque is awesome, never seen such a beautiful mosque. Vegetable market is superb. Happy to see both of you enjoying your beer after days work that too in hot sun. You have covered colombo very well. Appreciate both of you for your passion to travel around the globe & thank you for sharing the video.
Cheers! Yeah it seems they are building many things, will look completely different in a few years time
Carol wirh a jasmine flower in her hair was very charming.❤
She most certainly can not be any easier to look at > Chris 1 lucky man indeed
@janakotrcova It's not Jasmine, but we call it Temple flower or 'Araliya' in Sinhalese. It is a very charming flower for a charming lady
@@dinush0007 Dinush,it s good to know,I was not sure about the flower,it reminded me of jasmine.Thank you❤
Great video. We are originally from Sri Lanka and frankly, we have not seeing some of these places. One thing I would like to correct, Sri Lankans either follow Buddhism or Hinduism and not both. Most temples do have gods (or deity's) that are part of Hinduism, but that does not mean they follow Hinduism. It was great to see some of the less tourist areas of Colombo.
BTW, we follow all your travels and love the videos! keep it up
@user-vk8cz2gv2i Thank you for your correction!
What a beautiful country ❤❤
Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 the cleanest south asian country ❤❤❤
Thank You Chris & Carol Another Awesome Adventure. 🙂❤👍 Colombo Sir Lanka is very Beautiful 🙂Safe Travels and stay out of the Heat.
Chris and Carol, welcome to Sri Lanka!
thanks!
Hi Chris and Carol…thank you both for an awesome journey in Colombo.😊😊😊😊
Watching from Muscat Oman 🇴🇲👍💞
😊I am Sri Lankan Living in Muscut Oman ❤
Welcome to Colombo,Sri Lanka this weekend in great joy & peace to tours this amazing Asian country in June of 2024❤❤❤
It's number one in Asia to visit in 2024
Old abandoned building in Fort was the Apothecaries which used to sell spices, food, sweets "great ginger biscuits" and other goods. The red building across the street the Cargills was a famous departmental store witch use to sell books, comics, toys, clothes and other goods. The white building next to it was the Millers another departmental store. The church in pettah the Wolvendaal Church is now the Dutch reformed Church. Great memories! 🛺🏝😊
Beautiful place. Amazing video
No cooking just looking...at Carol!....😁🙋🏼♂️🙋♀️🇨🇦...nice hair cut Cris 👌👍 beer up!,,
I didn't know that Sri Lanka had so many historical building. So beautiful! I,m impressed by the mix of modern and historical buildings. My dad was actually in Sri Lanka in the early 50's, it was called Ceylon then. So we had some lamps and things from there in my childhood home I remember ☺☺ hehe! Nice video, take care you two ♥♥
Sri Lanka has had great architecture for thousands of years.
(E.g. Lovamahapaya = was a 9 story building built in 155BC and one of the tallest buildings anywhere in the world.)
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lovamahapaya
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architecture_of_ancient_Sri_Lanka
Our whole country is historical, i won't explain it here, srilankans knows it❤
❤ Super
@maritkjn505 Thank you for sharing your nice memories!
Hope oneday you will be able to visit Sri Lanka.
Watching your videos is our favorite way to start the weekend. Love your work, thanks for sharing your travels with us!
I have made a point to watch all of the commercials now when I watch your guys’ videos cause I want you to bet that money! 😂💰 Subscriber here from Portland, Oregon USA, love your videos! Thanks for sharing the world with us ❤
Greetings from Sri Lanka!!! ❤
Have been to Sri Lanka you must go to this beautiful lush tropical island country
@@user-ol5ze4hi5z Thank you for the kind words!!! ❤️
It's kind of healing to see Colombo from the perspective of a tourist. I can't recall the number of times I had gone past those buildings and never really thought anything about them. It suddenly looks so artistic from your point of view, something I never noticed before! Thanks a lot for this video, and hope you guys had fun!
I agree with your view!
First one woo hoo. Keep up the good work.
Loved the Japan videos
I got a shock when I saw you with your hair cut. Glad to see you out of China and now in Sri Lanka. Consider wearing hats in that heat or carry an umbrella to protect your skin. Enjoy the seasonal fruits like mangoes and seafood.
Greetings out of Africa! Love this video - love the positive way you state the facts. My Ignacio FERREIRA forefather arrived in Africa in 1722 - so my knowledge of Portugese is zero...))) But Porto is on my wish list. Thanks for sharing.
Yes, Silveira is a Portuguese surname that some Sri Lankans have, but its not as common as the Silva, De Silva, and Perera surnames. Enjoy my hometown of Colombo :D
Thanks you guys so much for this new remarkable video this weekend from Colombo, Sri Lanka to shows these amazing places on the streets in June of 2024❤❤❤
Super looks nice interesting places
I let the ad play, but it was really difficult because the ad was awkward af 😂😂😂. Amazed by the frequency of temples, mosques and churches coexisting.
The three most common last names in Sri Lanka are all of Portuguese origin. They're Perera, Silva/ De Silva, and Fernando. Other names like Almeida, Costa, Salgado, Fonseca, Dias, Mendis, Peiris, Alvis, etc. are also very common. Lots of everyday words of Sinhala (the main language in Sri Lanka) are of Portuguese origin.
interesting, didn't know you had some portuguese kind of words. Do you have any example of some words?
@@JumpingPlaces There are still communities that speak Portuguese creole in Mannar and in the eastern province
@@JumpingPlacescopa=cup
Hora = hours...just a few I could remember😂
@@knightofceylon-ms1uswow cool!
@@JumpingPlaces Here's a list on wikipedia which has over a hundred words.

Welcome to Sri lanka
Thank you for visiting Sri Lanka! Thank you for the video!
I wish you all the best!
Take care.
Woow...Happy to see both of you in my motherland... Welcome to 🇱🇰 🙏
First one woo hoo. Keep up the good work.
Loved the Japan videos
Will be going to Japan in one week super excited 🎉
Oh my favorite travel couple is in the same country as me! I’ve used your videos as guides for multiple countries.
Just for your information, many Hindu stupas and images of gods are present in most temples today because, in ancient times, Buddhist kings often took women from South India as their brides. To accommodate their worship practices, the kings built small Hindu worship places beside the main Buddhist temples. Over time, this practice has evolved into a cultural tradition, resulting in most Buddhist temples now featuring Hindu gods as well.
Enjoyed that guys ❤
❤❤ silent subscriber love you vids
Another great video thank you for the last one as well, we don't have cash to support you but we can certainly can watch the commercials if its going to help you out. We watched the New Orleans video the other it was awesome. We have been there and really enjoyed it and hope to return with our adult children. We are headed to Crete for 2 months in the fall.
Really enjoyed your videos with your parents and gotta say your drown work is amazing
Cheers 🥂
The Visa processing has been outsourced to some Indian company & that’s reason the visa fees has been increased. Most of the visa fee is going to the Indian company.
Welcome back to Sri Lanka ❤🙏
Im srilankan my religion is Buddhism and im sinhala
Racist
@@anandiansrock Are you on the spectrum?
Buddhism is the reason this country is so clean and peaceful compared to other South Asian countries
@lahiru1k no I would like if we just consider ourselves Sri lankan rather than being separated by religion or race , I'm sinhalese too my mother is catholic and father is budhhist
@@lahiru1k Buddhism is the reason why Myanmar is oppressing its minorities lol , you have a narrow mind smh, it’s only cuz the mindset of Sri Lankans is different than others in South Asia
Sri Lanka very interesting place. Loved the red and white mosque and little colorful temples. Chris I loved the background music. It was a nice groove for me. You always have great taste!😊
Glad you liked it
Realy good start, i like the diversity in Colombo
Good to see you guys back in Srilanka.
Enjoy and all the best
Awesome video. You guys are very professional.
Welcome to the Sri Lanka. 🇱🇰
Nice to see another amazing place. Love your video.
So happy to have discovered you and your channel! Now I will never have to travel! You do such fine work! THANK YOU! OX from the USA!
Very interesting place. 👍😊🇮🇪🇱🇰
It was so interesting to see the port city area. I was in Sri Lanka in 2018 and they were still bringing in the dirt to complete building out the land then, I believe!
Gosh have been watching all your vlogs since covid and still enjoying them.
Was just at Port City about 3 weeks ago & got a beer at the bar right in the center of all those fast food outlets there. Got rained out though about 6 o'clock. Always nice videos from you...
Oh right, when I asked a restaurant there they told me nowhere had beer in there. Although ended up being pretty good since we found that new beach club place
Nice Video, Thank You for visiting Sri Lanka
Visit kandy temple of tooth and Nelligala temple even .Since both temples are gorgeous
thanks for visiting our country
Hii welcome back guys..enjoy your stay in beautiful sri lanka
Good to see you two back in the island 🏝️it’s the off season now but hopefully you will enjoy your stay
Luv your videos !
My head has been 'follicly challenged ' for 50 years , in my genes . I do not move outside without a cap or hat . For most of the year am in in shorts and T shirt . Was 37c in Saigon 3 months ago :-)
Nice to see your video, I am shocking to hear that visa fees gone up. I’m Sri Lankan origin but brought up in the Uk 🇬🇧 I am planing holiday this year but it’s crazy USD 100. Last time I paid USD 30. Omg this is too high, but it’s lovely place
The best trip videos are yours.
This is a country and a city that remains on my bucket list and I’m glad to virtually explore it with my favorite traveling couple.
Love this incredible country, just amazing. ❤🎉
Hey just for your information- if you guys wud visit places in india like mangalore n goa you wud find PPL with Portuguese surnames like dsouza dcosta dsilva Pereira Rodrigues almeida braganza Mathias mendonca cardosa dmello sequeira fernandes , almost all the Portuguese surnames, coz goa was once a portuguese colony
Awesome video Legends 😁
Thanks 😁
thank you for visiting sri lanka 😍
Great video on how funding works at you tube. Very interesting and logical.
One of the nicest vlogs that shows the new Skyline of Colombo and hotspots in the Port City. Very true what you say about the crazy hike of the Visa fees as well.
The produce sold by hawkers in the palengke of Colombo is similar to the palengke (wet market) in the Philippines.
Bit late here but watching now. 😊
So Happy to see you back in Sri Lanka. Be aware of Scammers . Enjoy your Stay in Beautiful Country. ❤
Happy to See you in Sri Lanka
Was there Last year . Leave Colombo after 3 days . Relax in Matara surfing .. , then I Take the Bus to Ella .. took the train to Kandy .. important to make a Stop in the middle of the teafields .
Next year I will visit the Yale Nationalpark in south east .
Now IS better to visit the east Coast . They told me after April the people move to arugam bay because of the weather .
This Buddhist culture is so friendly and peacefull .. Always my dream
Thank you for sharing your view about Sri Lanka!
Wishing you the best!

Spanish and Portuguese: habitational name from any of numerous places called Almeida in western Spain and in Portugal, all named from Arabic al-māida 'table' (in topographic sense 'upland, tableland' or 'hill')
