I will remember many brilliant experiences of from this trip – riding Rani the elephant, holding a two-day old turtle, the festival in Kandy, Safari and cycling through the beautiful countryside. Chaminda was lovely and we will be emailing him some pictures on our return. The hotels were a much higher quality than we expected – Hotel Thilanka being our favourite. The people of Sri Lanka are very friendly and we never felt badgered with goods or for money as you are in other countries.
