This is Chris' Mom--I spoke with him today and he asked me to post an update to let you know what's been happening in Madagascar over the last two weeks and that he's fine.
There's been some political unrest in the country--you can google Madagascar news for information.
The Peace Corps have taken their volunteers in Madagascar to their training facility in a remote area so that they are away from the violence. They're closely monitoring the situation in the country and if they feel its necessary they'll relocate the volunteers to a location in Africa to determine how to proceed.
He asked that you hold off on sending any packages or letters at this time as he doesn't know when he'll be back in his banking town to retrieve them.
I'll keep you posted on updates as I hear them and we all thank you for keeping him in your thoughts. Robin
Wow! I just saw this posting...sorry to hear about the violence. Be careful Chris. Take care.
