Hello everyone,
Life is still going great here in Madagascar. I just got back from Vacation. I went to Tulear on the Southwest Coast of Madagascar. It was a great vacation with many unexpected twists and turns. I will be sending out my journal here soon. I thought I would attach some of my photos from my vacation and you will have to wait a little bit to hear the stories.

This photo is me and a lemur in Anakao. This lemur was at the hotel. It is tied up because it bit some child who was nagging it. So they keep it tied up so they can keep an eye on it. It is kind of sad but the hotel takes care of it. It just cant roam like it should be able to do.

This island was really small, and was like a dessert in the middle. It had strange vegetation and birds on it. No inhabitants live on it and actually it is taboo to disturb it.
