Madagascar (March, 2010) – On our walk through the Anja Reserve; we did not encounter traditional icons of god despite the translation of the name, Anjanaharibe means the "Place of the Great God. Instead we did encounter several lemur colonies, a variety of chameleons and a multitude of flora. We climbed through the nooks and crannies, along stone markers and through grottos with dense foliage. Cacti grew out of crevasses in the rocks; orchids mixed among the grasses on the ground and air ferns hung from the branches and trunks of trees. What I remember most intensely was the sensation of being watched; the Maki are curious creatures, in terms of showcase lemurs have the upper hand in voyeurism.
