Day 5 – Exploring Tana

We spent our first night in Madagascar, and the hotel was very comfortable, and I’m almost used to the time changes.  After a breakfast on the terrace of the hotel, Tsiry picked us up at front of the hotel.

I was very curious to see more of what life is like here, and was excited to learn that Nadine’s nieces were performing in a show at their school today (their last day before the Christmas break).  I suppose this was something like a Christmas show we would have at our schools in Canada, but without snow and it was outside.  Here are some pictures from the school.

We then drove around, touring more of the area, visited a crocodile farm, had lunch and then explored the area some more.  We also spent some time resting at the hotel since the heat and sun can get very tiring.  Temperatures have been about 32°C during the day.  Below are a few pictures from the day.

Here’s a Ford dealership in Tana.  I also saw a few Toyota dealers.
