So I cried the whole time, just like Gran🤣. Amazing vlog!!!!!!. To be so close to herds of elephants....😯😯😯. I was surprised it was just u both and Leel ( total sweetheart, by the way). I'd imagined it would be a group tour like u see in big parks in Kenya. Guess it was arranged thru u accommodation? How much was the day tour?. I wasn't grossed out by the crock eating the water buffalo...like you said Matty, the circle of life. Definitely added this to my bucket list. Just wow!!!!!🥰🥰🥰

Thanks Aunty Sue! It was an incredible day. You can book private tours which is what we did but I think everyone in the park that day had a private tour. Such is travel at the moment. I think we paid $170 for the private tour! So cheap for a full day exploring the park and having all of those encounters 😊

@@ACoupleOfKiwis Rugby has already grown in Sri Lanka. It's like a national sport. There are many high school teams and clubs where young men play. But the national team doesn't do well I believe because the team do not have sufficient coaching. Sri Lanka rugby team needs qualified coaching personnel from a country like New Zealand. Did you not see people playing rugby in school grounds when you were there in Sri Lanka?

Hi guys. We don't think 3 hours would be enough. 6 or 12 would be the best. We did the 12 hour and the last few hours of the day were tiring as we were lucky enough to have seen a lot in the first part of the day
