9th July Tana to Antsohihy

They wanted to do the trip to Ambanja in one day but it was never going to happen. It’s about 900km, but in some places, especially coming down from the highlands you only crawl along. It doesn’t help with all the villages along the way. We stop at a village near a spessitite mine and ask around. Rufin’s contact is at one of the mines, there are two in the area, and will have some material for me on the way back.
