We traveled in a van to Kandy where Randy will be teaching at Lanka Bible College. We passed many small villages with shops along the road. An interesting experience was a lady on the side of the road with her pet porcupines! We gave her 100 rupees ($1) to take some photos. We took a side jaunt to see the Pinnewala Elephant Orphanage. It was a great experience to see them herded to the river for their baths. We especially enjoyed the wee baby and her mother. We finally arrived at the Bible College and are staying in a house that is used to house visiting professors.
Why is the mother and her baby at the Elephant Orphanage? Is it because they don't have a herd to belong to? These pictures of wildlife are very cute.
