We
met
Mr
Lakshman
when
we
asked
in
our
hotel
for
a
tuk
tuk
driver
to
go
to
royal
botanical
garden.
The
driver
asked
if
it
was
okay
to
show
us
a
little
more
and
we
happily
said
yes.
We
went
to
the
big
buddha
statue
in
Kandy
where
he
taught
us
a
lot
of
interesting
facts.
Then
we
went
to
botanical
garden
where
he
joined
us
on
our
walk
through
the
garden.
Fascinating
how
much
he
knew
about
the
plants
and
the
garden.
He
also
managed
to
let
us
taste
various
fruits
on
our
way
and
drove
us
to
a
great
restaurant
with
a
wonderful
view
on
the
city.
As
it
was
so
nice
we
decided
to
drive
with
him
the
next
day
as
well.
Lakshman
was
on
time
and
we
went
to
the
tooth
temple.
Again
he
impressed
us
with
his
knowledge
about
Buddhism
and
the
temple.
After
the
temple
we
went
to
the
Elephant
orphanage,
then
he
again
made
sure
that
we
are
not
hungry
and
stopped
for
some
fruits
on
our
way
to
the
Tea
Factory.
After
this
trip
we
drove
to
the
Kandy
Spice
Walk
where
we
learned
a
lot
about
spices,
herbs,
Ayurveda
and
even
got
some
yummy
food
and
a
wonderful
massage.
Our
next
stop
was
the
carving
family
where
we
learned
a
lot
about
ebony,
mahagoni
and
teak
and
how
they
make
colorful
masks
and
other
wooden
products.
What
a
nice
family!
As
always
our
driver
made
sure
that
we
have
happy
full
bellies
that's
why
he
drove
us
to
a
local
restaurant
where
we
ate
delicious
kotthu.
I
really
want
to
emphasize
that
in
these
2
days
we
learned
so
much
about
Kandy
and
Sri
Lanka
thanks
to
our
driver!
Mr
Lakshman
was
always
very
friendly
and
made
sure
everyone
was
feeling
fine.
He
is
a
safe
driver,
helpful,
always
smiling
and
a
wonderful
teacher.
With
my
7
year
old
son
he
was
also
very
very
nice
and
I
am
sure
we
will
miss
him
because
he
treated
us
like
family.
Thank
you
so
much!
