Leisure activities in Madagascar?

Hi! Does anyone know what leisure activities are mostly specific to Madagascar or maybe just a site that describes that kind of things in detail? (I need it for a French project)

Please dont tell me Wikipedia since I've already tried that!

Thanks in advance!

Most of the things one would find searching on the Internet are tourist things which could be done just about anywhere where there is sun and sea and beautiful sunsets. If you want something specifically Malagasy, then I would suggest wildlife tours looking at the amazingly rich wildlife, including and especially the lemurs. Madagascar has them, together with the tiny Comoro Islands to its north provide the world's only present-day native habitat to lemurs. It's suggested that lemurs made their way to Madagascar from the larger African continent millions of years ago and have since adapted and evolved into the diverse number of species we see today.

There is also the ceremony of the turning of the dead, or famadihana. People save up for years to be able to dig up the bones of relatives and hold a party in celebration lasting several days. They wrap up the bones of the deceased and parade them about the village, telling him all the news since he died. It is forbidden to be sad on these occasions and people feast on zebus and other delicacies, laugh and make music. Malagasy people are remarkably musical and sing in four part harmony. They have a number of indigenous instruments which are peculiar to Madagascar: the jejy voatova - a Betsileo instrument with a calabash resonator, large block frets on the neck and two sets of strings set at a ninety degree angle; the kabosy (mandoliny) - a four to six-stringed simple guitar; the lokanga - a three-stringed fiddle, found among the Antandroy and Bara; the marovany - a wooden box with a set of strings on both sides, common particularly in the south; the sodina - an end-blown flute; and the valiha - a kind of zither with 21 strings, traditionally made of bamboo. Another musical tradition is that of choral recitation to the accompaniment of music as a group of people move in a circle before an audience relating tales of their ancestors. They keep this up for many, many hours and it is very moving to see such a performance. They tell the tales in chorus and with great earnestness.

The above are the real Madagascar. There is also the tourist side http://www.hsm.mg/en/leisures.htm
