Hy Maria! 

How are you? I hope you're having a great time! I'm now on holidays in Madagascar. Here it's all very beautiful, I'm enjoying this a lot.

Madagascar Island
As you well know, Madagascar is situated in the African coast, near Mozambique, so the weather is quiet warm, but it rains too. I'm located in Andapa, a small old in the nord of the island. I stay in a beautiful big bungalow, it has two rooms, one living room, a kitchen, a bathroom and a garden. It's extraordinary! 

Baobab
The island is so wonderful and big. It has a great environment, with beautiful trees, coastes and animals. Here, the most important tree is the baobab (also called Andansonia). It's 20 metres high aproximately and 11 metres round. I send you a photo of it so you can see the big size that it has! The habitants are also very sociable. Yesterday, a native family let us have breakfast in their home just to know better their culture. I love them!

We've only been here for a week, so we're going to spend two weeks more. Tomorrow we'll do snorkling, and in the afternoon we'll do a safari in the south the island. We don't have too much plans, because we preffer do what we want, when we want.

Next week, I'll send you a postcard telling you the great things that I'm going to do!

Hugs and love

Cristina

P.D: I've already bought a beautiful, big, old, brown canoe. I'll show you when I come back!
