The ferry will not be operational for much longer that a month according to the ferryman. The level of the Boteti has gone down too much. Going in the ferryman dropped us on a sandbank a good 20 meters from the riverbank because he could not get closer, the water is only about knee deep that we had to drive through to get to the riverbank. There is still a deep channel in middle of the river.
