Visit to the zoo

First an awesome view from Tana!

 

Hi again everybody!

Today we went to the Zoo in Tana and we saw some awesome lemurs, Crocodiles and baobab trees. We tried to upload some pictures but it took ages for these three so that's all we have for now. 

Below you see Lara and patrick with some new football friends.
 

Renée found a boy with a Ajax shirt.(We shouldn't forget next year to bring some PSV shirts)


We had dinner with Mika's family and driver Claude. We had some traditional Malagasy dishes which tasted really good.

We managed to arrange a taxi-brousse for Friday to go to the north. Luckily we are getting used to the traffic! Tomorrow we will try to get some stuff in Tana and wake up early so we're going to leave you now! (It is here still one hour later then in Europe!)

All the best!
Alex & Renée (Lara, Pierre and Patrick)

Antananarivo day 1


Manahoana!

Last night/today, we learned to sleep in 50 different postions at the airport. After our nice story of last night, we had to crash at the check-in part of Nairobi airport. Too bad for us, the Kenyan airways provided the most terrible chairs, so Patrick decided to lay on the ground, the rest did some yoga-excercises and Renee even managed to get a bump on her forehead from lying down. Against all our expectations, our Belgian chocolates didn't melt, in stead we froze. After 13h, we finally got on the plane to Tana. The flight went smootly.

Mika's dad picked us up with two drivers and brought us to the hotel. We were in 2 big SUV's and we experienced a whole new kind of driving. (and then they say something about the Belgians...) As you guys can see on the pic, finding a parking spot was even harder then in Brussels. Now we know why there are claxons in a car. Once arrived at the hotel, we got a really nice room and had some nice lunch.

With the help of :Mika's dad, the guys got a taylor-made suit for only 80euros, even though they both needed a lot more fabric then an average Malagasy person. :)

We got to see a really nice part of Tana and we were shown some really awesome views, as you can see below.. Now were going for some drinks downstairs in the nice hotel-bar.
