Hi Everyone,
Just a quick update. Sorry no photos as yet … will get done when back in the UK. The internet in this part of the world is way too tempramental!!
Well we made it safely to Madagascar after all the problems with our flights and so far are having a wonderful time. It is coming to a very quick end unfortunately.
We organized a tour when we arrived in Tana to take us down the country. Ended up having our own private car with guide … not really a backpackers way to travel but needs must!!
We have spent the 10 days walking and camping throughout national parks and absorbing ourselves in the local culture and of course watching the local Lemurs and Sifakas.
(Some of the trekking we did to find the little blighters was more strenuous than finding the Mountain Gorillas!)We have just had a week on Ile St Marie and island of the east coast of Madagascar … have had a lovely time and finally got time to work on our suntan … Marcus has gone particularly brown and I … well … just freckly!! We have scootered around the island, watched humpback whales playing offshore (mums and their new offspring) and taken in a dive off the coral reef … listening to the sounds of the whales as we went … really fantastic!
Hope all is well at home. Looking forward to hearing from you soon about what is happening at home.
