To us the real heroes of the cruise are the
waiters and chefs!

At Madagascar we took small boats to the
"Lemur Island". Renée got a kick out of me wading ashore!!

Renée found two boys with these lemurs.
She traded two baseball caps for the picture.

This enterprising youngster had a beautiful
chameleon on a stick.

In Durban they had a Zulu village for the
tourists, minus the flies. Can you spot the Coke bottle among this
chief's regalia?

Also in Durban we visited the Indian Market.
The sign reads
"Arson Fire Mother-In-Law Exterminator"!

We visited many Botanical Gardens filled
with beautiful and exotic plants.

In Port Elizabeth they have the first speciman
of the coelacanth, found living in Madagascar after being thought extinct
for 65,000 years.
