Sri Lanka: Don't Mention The Boar. Sunday 11th November



Sunday 11th November

To get from my room to the restaurant, I had to get past a herd of wild boar. Thankfully, they were as wary of me as I was of them.  The monkeys were always ready to steal anything that wasn't nailed down. I didn't see any elephants at the reserve, which is probably a good thing if this notice is anything to go by. The writer has a sense of humour...

Much as I appreciate the chance to visit Sri Lanka, I felt that this trip was a missed opportunity; too much time spent on a coach with almost no contact with locals. Our guide was interested in history but not in the wildlife. Shame.
