Our first outing in Madagascar. We visited a community project and helped their reforestation efforts by planting 6 tiny trees. When they are grown up the lemurs will play in them.

Very wet but ultimately rewarding trek to see babakoto (indri), diademed sifaka and brown lemurs. And Parson's chameleon. Unfortunately cameras got very, very wet.
