In April 2004, my mom heads to Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru in the Maldives to lay her eggs. Now, I'm 5 years old and the official mascot and spokesturtle of Banyan Tree!

In March of 2004, on a sunny, calm day, a female turtle heads to villa #45 in Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru to lay a clutch of 150 eggs. 2 weeks later, a vicious thunderstorm strikes, leaving only 30 eggs intact.
Banyan Tree marine biologists quickly transferred the 30 eggs to a safe location on Vabbinfaru beach just in front of the new Marine Biology Lab. One of the 30 eggs that survived a vicious thunderstorm, Felly was born on 28th April, 2004 and is now 5 years old.
