Mini-update
Last weekend we went to Ella, saw a 90 m waterfall, got full body treatment at a spa, ate amazing garlic curry, visited a reggae bar (which didn't play reggae at all - what's up Lonely Planet?), climbed little Adam's peak. We got Monday and Tuesday off because of Tuesday being a Poya day (Buddhist holiday - full moon. Buddha was born, entered Nirvana, and died - all three on a poya day) we went down to Tangalla beach on the south coast at met up with other volunteers who were staying there. Me and Amy managed to squeeze in Yala National Park on Tuesday (we spotted a leopard - score) and back to Maharagama in the middle of the night. More about all this in another post when I have more time, internet is extremely slow at the moment.

This weekend - Tangalla beach again, the day and a half we had there simply wasn't enough. Most volunteers are joining as well. Will surely be enjoyable. And then there's only one week left of volunteering, can't believe it's gone by so quickly!
