Next, we headed inland to the Kandy Samadhi Center, an Ayurveda and yoga center in the middle of the jungle, in the middle of the mountains.

What a wonderful place to unwind. And always a dog available to be petted.

beautiful animals
freshwater crab in the rainforest of Sri Lanka
And interesting animals: Here’s a crab that either lives entirely on land (yes, it was humid and not particularly warm when we were there in July) or has moved a good distance from its aquatic home.

And then these very interesting animals … leeches … Mostly these are just in the grass, as long as you stay on the trails nothing will happen to you. But they’re fast… uih that gave us the creeps … Back in Bolivia I had already experienced the fact that as a human in the jungle one stands quite easily at the bottom of the food chain. But here we were even less prepared than I was then. For this reason, we did not do any hiking in the jungle. If you’re drawn to the jungle, you’ll find tips at toppeaktravel and if you are prepared everything is half as bad.
