We start our journey on Sunday 4.30 a.m & we reached to Koggala around 6.00 a.m. First we went to see Aranya premises. It was situated in very beautiful place & surround by river. Kuti build on the river bank & facing river side. Important thing was Crocodiles coming to aranya premises & they informed us not to go close to river. “Katina Perahera” started around 9.00 a.m & after that “Katina Poojawa” started. After finished all religious work we left from there around 1.30 p.m. After that we went to “Martin Wickramasinghe” Museum in Koggala. There was lots of things to see . It is very good place for school children.We spent around 2 hour’s there & after that we went to see Galle Fort. On the way we went to see Air Force Plane at Koggala. We spent good time in Galle Fort & we started our return journey around 5.00 p.m. We reached home around 7.00 p.m & we completed another trip with lots of happy memories.
