by Madubashini Jayawardena

It was a long journey; we (eleven of us )set off from Eco-v office at 4.30 a.m on Friday on 30th April and reached our destination around 2.30 p.m. Our destination was Lahugala Kitulana National Park (situated approx. 15 min. West of Arugam Bay).

Eco-v-Team: "Going to be a Force"

This monsoon forest lies in the basin of Heda Oya, 16 km inland from the coastal town Pottuvil in Eastern Province. The Pottuvil-Monaragala trunk road runs through the south eastern sector of the Park.

Officers of the Lahugala office of the Department of Wildlife Conservation of Sri Lanka warmly welcomed us. They served us a steaming cup of tea and we served them biscuits. So we had a tea party-discussion under the shade of a huge Mango tree. Park warden Mr. Gajaweera briefed us the history and the current situation of the park.

ArugamBay, Sri Lanka

Hay Everyone,

So where do i begin….

Detrol price canada Buy arcoxia 60 mg

Cabana Cabin by the beach

…….. This morning I got up at 4:00am to walk to the airport and get the plane to Colombo, Sri Lanka. I met a guy on the plane named Loxly who runs tours in Sri Lanka from his home in Melbourne. He also owns a night club in Colombo and wants me to be a d.j at his club for the night I am staying Kuala Lumpur. Not too sure what to think of this…but he said if an Aussie or a European is D.Jing in the club he pulls in a good crowd. I told him I have never done this before but appantley all I need to do is choose a few songs and “mingle”. We’ll see what happens. (Becker – my extreme act you asked me to carry out will be D.Jing at a Kuala Lumpur nightclub).

I arrived in Colombo and met my driver named Myzan. I was unaware when I got to Colombo that they have had the most rain seen in 50 years and the city is flooded. It took about 2 hours to get out of Colombo itself.The car drive was scary to say the least. Myzan drove at brake-neck speeds on the wrong side of the rode whilst constantly on the horn. Even if there was no cars around… he loved to beep. Anytime he passed a lady, he beeped. Everytime he passed a dog, he beeped. At one point he clipped a pedestrian with his mirror and kept on driving like it was a normal thing to do. Didnt even check his mirrors to see if the guy was okay. We also came around a corner on a remote road to lock-up the brakes becuase of a wild elephant sitting in the middle of the road. Myzan beeped at the elephant (as if it was a normal occurance), the elephant got up slowly and walked off without even looking in our direction. It took 10 hours or awkward driving to reach Arugam Bay. I checked into my Cabana which is unreal. It sits on the sand dunes, is double story with bed upstairs and hammock downstairs. It also has a trap-door and firemans pole leading to a toilet and shower which has no roof. Continue reading ‘ArugamBay, Sri Lanka’
