"Coconut Confusion in Galle" (Sri Lanka)

Story:
Tara, ever the adventurous traveler, is wandering through the vibrant streets of Galle Fort. The sun is blazing, and she’s desperate for something to cool her down.
She spots a street vendor with a big cart labeled “King Coconut – Nature’s Energy Drink!”
Tara: “Perfect! Healthy, local, and exotic!”
The vendor hands her a bright orange king coconut with a straw sticking out. She sips—then frowns.
Tara: “Umm… is it supposed to taste like… ocean water and mystery?”
Vendor (laughing): “You have to shake it first, madam! It wakes up the flavor.”
Tara shakes it like a maraca. The straw flies out, splashing coconut water all over a nearby cat… which leaps onto Tara’s backpack, causing a mini commotion.
Tara: “Okay! Noted. Nature’s energy drink comes with a splash zone warning!”
Final Caption: Lesson learned: In Galle, coconuts are delicious—but unpredictable! Always shake with caution!
