more pics


This picture was taken about 4 months ago in the middle of April when we went on our "site visits." The drive to our site from the capitol takes about 15 hours and you go through these very beautiful grasslands on the plateau.


We don't live in the rainforest, but were able to visit one during training. This was in Andasibe with guides from Association Mitsinjo showing us around. These are two Indri (Indri indri) lemurs that were literally sitting right above us on the trail!

During training we had stayed with a host family. Our host mom was great and helped us learn the ropes of everyday life here. She has three children, but only the 8 year old girl lived with us. The two older boys (15 and 20-something) worked and lived in another town, but we were able meet them both. This picture was taken from our family's house.
