Today I will continue my adventure in Sri Lanka. On the next day we went to rafting. In each boat were 6 people. Two in the front, two in the middle and two in the back. There was also a coach in the centre back who told us what we had to do and how we had to paddle. It wasn't so easy as you might think. The river was very wild and fast and the boat wasn't so stable. But obviously, it was really fun and everybody enjoyed it.
After the rafting, our next part of the day was totally different. We went to the holiest place for the Buddhists- Kandy. Kandy is the home of the Temple of The Tooth Relic, one of the most sacred Buddhist's places. The history tells that that tooth belonged to Gautama Buddha and who owns ths tooth, has a lead of Sri Lanka. For a long time, Kandy was also a capital of the country due to the temple and its relict.
That day showed me the variety which Sri Lanka can offer- an impressive nature and fascinating monuments. But of course it wasn't the end of my journey so stay tuned to the next episode!
