Transportation

Transportation in Madagascar is as varied as the people here.  For most, transportation is easy, free and God-given: their feet.  However, for some, transportation is on a sarety or ox cart.  For others, its by pousse pousse, bicycle or small motorcycle with the all-too-familiar sight of a family of five aboard.  Recently, there has been an influx of ATV’s in our beach community.  Then of course there is the car, both the old jalopy as well as the new breeds of Toyota and others.  Just another everyday contrast we find ourselves in here on the Red Island.


this old beauty was in the capital city

and like most places, there’s the occasional traffic jam… two ox-carts, 1 bush-taxi, 2 bikes… and no one wants to be the one to back up!
