Red-fronted brown lemur, Madagascar
My friend Karen Minkowski, a frequent contributor to The Intrepid Tourist and definitely an intrepid traveler, is currently in Africa, a place that she has visited often. She writes:
As well protected from Covid as I could be, I decided it was time to return to southern Africa. When I called my friend who lives in Zimbabwe and told her “I’m ready”, she said “Great, how about joining us in Madagascar first”? Madagascar had never called to me, but without giving it two seconds’ thought I said “Yes!”. I’m happy that I did. We saw landscapes and wildlife that were completely new to me and enjoyed many amazing experiences.
