We went to visit the turtle sanctuary which is run by donations only by a man who has dedicated his life to saving them as the locals steal the eggs. Once they are big enough to survive he lets them go. However, some can never be let go as they are not able to survive on their own because of various disease.

We went by the Fat Man taxi!! and it was quite an exhiliarating ride as you can see by Lissy's hair!!
