Akinan'ny Nofy

I'm sitting with my feet in soft white sand, and looking at brilliantly green plants growing out of lakewater that is just a mere shade darker than the brilliantly blue sky.

It feels like I've crawled into a Kodachrome universe that's so bright it hurts. Ok, maybe Velvia, if I'm being literal instead of poetic, but the former sounds better.

It's beautiful; warm, but not particularly muggy and there's a gentle breeze ruffling the trees.

I've taken one hike and two swims in one of the two lakes that surround the resort where I'm staying, watched a sunset and a sunrise, played cards over dinner (boulet? Incredibly complicated and no easier in mostly-French), slept deeply, oggled the nearly full moon as she slipped out of the sky, and enjoyed the company of some semi-tame Indri Indri.もっと詳しく
