The most anticipated trip to Sri Lanka is Yarra National Park, taking the large open-top Jeep Yala Safari, just entering the park is still sunny, the sky suddenly rains, so that we are free from the dust. The whole hunt passed through the grassland area, lake area, forest area and other different ecological environments. I was fortunate to encounter elephants, wild boars, peacocks, flower deer, buffalo herds, crocodiles, lizards, black-faced monkeys, many birds, etc. I only hated that my hands could not capture the most exciting picture slowly. Although I didn't see the expected Ceylon leopard, luck was already good. Just out of the park, it rained heavily, which is the characteristic of the rainy season in Lanca, next time I go to Kenya to see the big migration of animals... Tips: 1. You can't enter Yala by car, you need to take a special 6 large-scale sightseeing jeep, and you can book a hotel transfer; 2. Essential sunglasses, sun protection, veil or mask (dust prevention); 3. The Yala dry season is closed in October every year.

For turtles, REKAWA is a unique place, with long, narrow sandy beaches that separate the Indian Ocean from the lagoon, and no overdeveloped resorts, making the night here dark enough. So, this is the current location of the best TURTLE WATCH in Ceylon, where you can observe up close and turtles lay eggs. Arrived around 8:30 in the evening, a group of foreigners is sitting outside watching the video, entering the room, the layout is simple and clear, you will see a turtle lying on the table, wonderful, you should not guess, only the shell is real. Another table, erected like a squat pit, is actually a model of turtles producing ovaries, such a small nest, which can accommodate up to 100 turtle eggs, and the container next to it, is the eggshell left by the small turtles breaking out of the shell, try to touch, thin and crisp. On the ground and on the walls, there are sketches of turtle spawning, the 600kg mother turtle, dragging her bulky body, crawling from the sea to the beach, digging - laying - filling - returning, looking at the simple process, which takes at least an hour or two. There are also many paintings by children on the wall, which are selected from the national marine theme painting competition, and are placed here, quite appropriate and relevant. After waiting, they were called to the beach to continue waiting, and the staff would continue to patrol the beach until they found the turtles entering a nest to lay their eggs. In the dark, listening to the sound of the waves, many people who do not know each other, just on the beach under the moonlight, gathered together, silently waiting, just for a glimpse of nature, this feeling, a little magical. The turtle finally came as scheduled, no flashlight and flashlight, only a special red light, shining on the turtle mother who was digging hard, this boring action did over and over again, she did not seem tired. Quietly observed not knowing how long, everyone is just silent, but the respect for the turtle mother is getting deeper and deeper, the great motherhood, from this tireless turtle, the action of digging on the land, for her, never relaxed, but she just like this, persisted. When the turtle slowly climbed back into the sea, people spontaneously dispersed, without applause, the biggest applause, in the heart.
