From its ancient baobabs to its adventurous sailing trips to its incredible (and oh-so-friendly) wildlife Madagascar's been good to us. But it's time to move on. South Africa, here we come.
Til then, below are a few parting shots from the land of the lemurs (and tortoises, and geckos, and ...).
 |
| Nature at its most "natural"--these radiated tortoises live (and love) in one of the world's only programs set up to breed the highly-endangered reptiles. Seemed things were going well when we visited. |
 |
| That's one tiny gecko catching rays on the mirror of our rented motor bike. |
 |
| A trip to Madagascar without a photo of a ring-tailed lemur? Not a chance. |
 |
| Sadly, despite its reputation as a haven for rare and endangered wildlife, the island remains a frequent venue for slash-and-burn agriculture, as seen in the photo above. |
