Lessons 2-4

Andy:                What is special about Saint Martin's Island?

Tamal:              It's an island in the Bay of Bengal, and it's the 

                          only coral island in Bangladesh. You can see 

                          coral in different shapes and colours. And the 

                          water in the Bay of Bengal is very clean and blue! 

Andy:                Oh, that sounds wonderful!

Tamal:               Yes, it is! You can also see the turtles on the island. 

                           The turtles make their nests on the beach and then 

                           they lay their eggs in them. You can see many fish, too.

Andy:                 Wow! Really? Can I go sailing?

Tamal:               Well, you can take a day cruise. You can go on wooden 

                           boats or sea truck. The cruises are exciting and safe. 

                           They are a great way to see the Bay.

Andy:                 Thanks for the information, Tamal!
