Experiencing Sri Lanka
Our half-day trip was very fun (except for some parts). First of all our tuk-tuk driver/guide spoke very little English/Russian which made our communication difficult as every time he introduced a place to us it was hard to understand what exactly he meant and that took a lot of time. We enjoyed smelling different herbs in the spice garden, exploring a moonstone mine and the jewelers shop attached to it, we saw many different precious and semi-precious stones and had an opportunity to touch and feel their texture. Buddha’s statue was huge and very interesting to look at: we made sure we took some nice pictures there. The turtle hatchery was a very heart touching experience as we got to see some disabled ones, very young ones and were allowed to touch them. We absolutely loved the elephant ride, loved petting the elephant, but weren’t necessarily happy about the fact he had chains on his neck and had to do as he was told. We also loved the boat ride; the river was absolutely gorgeous and huge, we visited an island with Buddha’s temple and a monk who made luck and health bracelets for us from a thread, we also saw some monkeys, had a fish foot “massage”. It was a very interesting day filled with unique and lovely experiences.
