madagascar vacation!!!!!!! Ampefy(touch)

After my lovely visit to the zoo, I decided to visit the Liliha waterfalls in Ampefy. I drove and drove for a really long time until I saw the sign that said "Ampefy, straight ahead". I trekked all through the breathtaking forest with my guide until we approached the falls. I took a couple of amazing pictures, then decided that it WAS a hot day, and I was really hot and sweaty, so I decided to jump in the quite refreshing water and cool off. apperantly other tourists were thinking the same thing, so pretty soon all of the tourists were taking a swim. Eventually, even the guide joined us in our refreshing swim.

madagascar vacation!!!!!!! the Tsimbazaza zoo(smell)

After a long flight with many stops, I have finally arrived in Madagascar. I have still not recovered from the short trip to Tanzania with Hannah, but I guess I will have to get over it. Today was fun. I went the the Tsimbazaza zoo! I wasn't really looking forward to the experience before because I thought the zoo would be poorly kept, but it turned out to be surprisingly nice and up kept. But what I REALLY wasn't expecting to happen to me was the awful smell of lemur poop. I was taking pictures like any other tourist in Madagascar :) when an awful stench filled the air. I turned around to see a whole pile of (unable to think of a word besides poop that doesn't sound weird) poop in the lemur exhibit. Let me tell you it smells a whole lot worse than NORMAL poop. My nose was fried. You might as well of cut it off because it was completely useless for the next five hours. Anyway, my day was pretty nice. After my nose regained consciousness, I got some lunch only to be snarfed up by the birds, got some more lunch(eaten by me)

and headed home after a long fun day of tourism.
