Elephant Road

Welcome to Elephant Road. This Road is the most dangerous road in Sri Lanka. The reason for that is because Elephants come out of nowhere and try and tip the tuk tuks over. When coming across an elephant, usually you would have to wait for it to move- but we didn't do that because a bus came and helped us get around the Elephant. It was actually quite nerve-racking but at the same time really cool. The first Elephant we came across was a big bull. If the bus didn't come we could have been waiting there for hours. The second Elephant we came across was a smaller female and she wasn't in the middle of the road so we just zipped right past.
We were on our way to Ella when all this mayhem happened. The road to Ella is exceptionally steep and in some parts we thought Tiki wouldn't make it.
Ella is a town hanging off the side of a mountain. The temperature is fairly cold at night and a bit chilly during the day.
After a delicious curry we stumbled across a pool hall filled with tables. I reckon I had 10 games before I tapped out. Good day in Ella.Read more
