Everyday life!

It's funny how fast things go from unfamiliar to routines. We have now been in Madagascar for two months, and are getting to know this country better and better. There is not so much new things that have happened since last time, so I will just put out some pictures from our daily lives..

This week we have been fixing up some of the boxes in the pighouse.

How many Malgasy farmer-students is needed to give a piglet his iron-injection?..

Some cute piglets:

Now we have to wear masks when we are working with the electrical tools, because it's not healthy to breath in the air of melted metal..

Here we are having food-break with some of the workers..

In our break in the middle of the day we decided to climb up to the watertower.. Me, who isn't that afraid of heights; actually thaught it was a bit scary..

I went on the bus here alone for the first time, and got a new little friend who really wanted me to speak Malagasy, so I tried as well as I could..

In the weekends we go to Antsirabe, the nearest town. To go there we take the bus, and after we have been grocery-shopping we go home with a Kinga, a cute and windy type of taxi.. They look really slow, but they are really fast; and there is no security except that some of them have a "security-chain" on the sides..

Here is Julie and me inside the Kinga on our way home..
