État des routes au Botswana?

Bonjour à tous,Pour ceux qui préparent un voyage au Botswana, ci-après la copie d' une info que je viens de recevoir sur l' état des routes à mi-mai (je n' ai pas de version française, mais si on veut aller se ballader là bas, il vaut mieux parler anglais):"Maun to South Gate
From Shorobe to South Gate Via Mawana Vet Fence Is very bumpy and corrugated. Apparently the Grader is broken down and no one knows when it will be fixed. Also from Mawana Vet Fence to Mababe is also very bumpy and corrugated.South Gate to Xakanaxa
Is not bad, A little Bumpy and Dusty.South Gate to 3rd Bridge
Is the usual bumpy with sandy patches, 1st and 2nd Bridges have been repaired for when the flood arrives.3rd Bridge to Xakanaxa
Is the usual sandy road, 4th Bridge has been repaired (the old bridge) and the new one is still usable although leaning a little to the left.Xakanaxa to Khwai
Is dusty and there are some big holes from the rainy season. At the river crossing there is a new road detouring around and is completely dry, this new road comes out almost directly opposite the entrance to Dombo Hippo Pools. The rest of the way from Dombo to Khwai is fine. You can also drive on the Flood Plains as the flood has receded, but be careful as the waters will start rising soon again.Khwai to Savuti
From Khwai (North Gate) through the village the road is dry at the moment, continue through the big dip with the concrete slab at the base and continue on the gravel road, after several hundred meters the Gravel Road does a 90 degree turn to the left, this goes to a big, deep crossing. Continue straight through the 90 degree bend on the old 2 track road. This gradually turns to the right, keep on this past the first left turning,
take the second left and this will bring you to a small crossing, Walk It, Low Range and take the crossing by going far right. It is bumper depth in the cruiser with a dip in the middle that is headlight depth. The dip is only about half a metre wide. Be cautious in the next months as the flood arrives, this crossing will get to bonnet depth again. After the crossing you enter a big open area, you want to keep left and drive straight across it, if you get to the Khwai air strip then you have gone to the right. Once through the open are you enter the Mophane forest again, at the fork turn left, keep along this road for several Kilometres. You will arrive again on the gravel road. Head over the Concrete (White) Bridge and proceed to Mababe Gate. Once through Mababe Gate most people are going right at the fork, the old Depression road, the “New Road” which is left at the fork is getting sandy and very bumpy. Once at the sand ridge it is getting quite sandy with many vehicles getting stuck already, mostly driver error, wrong gearing. After the sand ridge the road is fine all the way to Savuti.Savuti to Kasane
From Savuti the road is fine, there are the usual sandy patches, but all is good. From Kachikau the road is tarred of course and is smooth driving; just keep an eye out for both wild and domestic animals running across the road to the river.
Once at Ngoma Gate there is a new Game Scout (Very Strict) and he is checking all paper work before letting you through, even if you are taking the transit road he is still checking your camping and entrance vouchers from where you have been. From Ngoma Gate down along the river to Ihaha is a little bumpy and stoney but ok.Sedudu Gate to Ihaha
I have avoided this section this year due to the ‘Congestion Charges’, most people have!! But now for the last month or so the river route has been under water so no-one can use it anyway!!!!! Any one camping at Ihaha and coming from Kasane has to take the NANTANGA turn off which is 20km on the tar road from Sedudu Gate
or at Ngoma Gate.Nata to Kasane
The Nata to Elephant Sands road is good new road. Past Elephant sands towards Kasane, for about 80kms, this is still good new road. From then, there’s a detour, but a good one, as they’re still fixing the old tar road..
But it’s okay, you can still drive Nata to Kasane in about 3 hours.Safe Driving !!!

Thank you so much EricThis a for the wet season. So I expect it to be dry by next october Depuis tout a l'heure je suis content de te taquiner........

Comment as tu deviné Un petit blanc sec de Gaillac. hum et j'ai passé une bonne soiree apres une semaine bien chargee.

Salut AlexHic,C'est ce qui s'appelle soigner le mal par le mal: après une semaine chargée c'est qui est chargé le WE?

Maintenant c'est plutot un bon smoothie pour finir ce week end.
Me manque juste les mangues pour le rendre encore plus parfait.Bonne semaine

Et le liquoreux de Gaillac : cépage "Loin de l'Oeil", tu as essayé ?
Je peux te dire qu'un Renaissance de chez Rotier dans le bush, bien frais à l'apéro...ça vaut presque un Yquem

Je vois que Monsieur est un connaisseurJ'ai goute le vin doux, mais je prefere quand même le sec avec ce type de cepage, le loin de l'oeil, car je trouve le gout "agrume" du type pamplemousse ressort mieux.Question de gout.
Et puis le bon Chablis est devenu tellement cher, que nous nous faisons plaisir avec du gaillac blanc depuis quelques annees deja
Je bosse pas trop loin de la region :)Je suis plutot clement terme mais je vais essayer la prochaine fois le domaine rotier,
Merci
