pictures from madagascar

View of the town. My house is located in the trees on the middle,
right side of the picture (you can't seee it sorry:). And the buildings just to
to the left of the trees in the middle, right side of picture are the class-
rooms to the EPP (the elementary school).

Kinsey's house-there is a red circle around where my house is
even though you can't see it:)
Kinsey in rainforest next to some big plant.



Kinsey by river in AAA.





Kinsey and new friends. Note they have a couch. Their house is acually nice for


rural Madagascar.


Girls fishing for crabs they caught 4 or 5 tiny crabs, smaller than a baseball.



Boy fishing, he didn't catch anything.


One of the buildings at the CEG, where I will be teaching. All classrooms open to

the outdoors.



A tiny waterfall that is on the rivers in AAA. The kids in town jump off the


rocks on the right after the fall on hot days.... I haven't tried it yet. First,


because swimming in fresh water is one of the PC Don'ts. Second, because I


can't confirm that there are NOT any crocodilies. Third, because I don't want


marary kibo (stomach sickness).


One of the lemurs we saw in the wild after hiking up the mountain.


Top of the mountain we hiked up.



Mountain we hiked up.


View of the town. This is one of the two rivers that runs though the

town. Go over the bridge and it's a 1 or 2 k walk to the CEG(middle school)

where I will work. Take the road that goes through town (parallel to the river)

and you can go to the market or it's one of the ways to my house.
These are pictures Kinsey E-mail to me to post for her. She was still having problems with her blog, and long lines to use computers.
