Day 2 - Sri Lanka
To begin our second day, we visited Ahungalla Sea Turtle Conservation Centre. We were taken through a turtle shaped aquarium with baby sharks and lobsters. Coming out of the aquarium we were greeted with a nest of 200 eggs; these were of different species of endangered turtle, e.g the green turtle. We were then shown baby turtles which we were giving the opportunity to hold, ( they were only a couple of weeks old.) We got some very cute pictures with them and many other bigger turtles, such as the rare albino turtle, (there’s only 1000 of them in Sri Lanka.)
We then continued our day at the school where they greeted us with lunch. In the afternoon, we led a session of football, where we taught many football drills, such as dribbling, passing and shooting. The children loved it and many of the locals joined in!
