Ms. Rosy, Hikkaduwa, Sri Lanka


On a weekend trip to Hikkaduwa I met a lady, quite contrary. The locals call her Rosy. Though they claim her to be 120 years old I doubt it. Every day they feed her with a delicious salad of seaweed. Yummee..….(not!).



She is quite tame and is not afraid of people. As long as she gets her treat she is quite happy. She doesn’t even mind who feeds her. When it’s time to go her caretaker rubbed a bit of sand on her back and gave her a little pat. Off she went…that is till another guy brought is another type of seaweed. Better watch those pounds young lady!

Wyoms, remember in "Finding Nemo" that Crush is 150 years old?? Maybe, just maybe, Rosy is 120! :)
