RN 7 is nice way to see Madagascar. Someone if visited Namibia, maybe there are some similar views, regarding montains. Very sad country doe's have good road infrastructure and real development. Sky and sun are different from Europe. After Madagascar I reach toxicity on my viamin D level (I continued to take vitamin diring one month, it was not necessary). I think only sun is a big part of menu on island, even you don't eat much and diverse. It boost so much metabolic health. If you could find you place on island you are a happy person... Thanks to keep us in touch with the holy land😊😊😊...
Madagascar is almost totally within the tropics, so no vitamin-D supplementation is necessary, unless wrapped-up like a muslim woman. Even in cold countries, eating the carnivore diet (meat/eggs/fish) will supply enough D. High-latitude vegetarians suffer health issues like multiple sclerosis, if not supplementing.
I have a feeling that better-quality, supple tyres (like Michelins), set at the correct pressures (or a bit lower), would lessen suspension and driveshaft damage. Hope you can source a Toyota Land Cruiser; seem to be the best of the 4WD bunch.
Yes 😅 the Malagasy will just jump on the back as they never usually get invited to sit inside many don’t know how to open the car door most don’t shut the doors properly and have no idea how to open the window
even if you find yourself a landcruiser 79 pickup, it will fall apart on such roads, unless you get the vehicle checked between long journeys. you are undertaking reactive repairs as things break/fall apart...you need to be a step ahead to avoid so many breakdowns on long journeys.
No I disagree in part, the LandCruiser 70s and any previous series ( except 100s, 200s, 300s ) won't fall apart even if you trying, but of course maintenance and preventive maintenance is needed in every vehicle.
@@christianmagno984 my sense is that part of Bill's problem is that the Mazda pickup is only undergoing repairs when things break - doesn't seem to be undertaking any regular inspections/preventative maintenance [correct me if I'm wrong Bill]...that's essential with every vehicle.
@@andreamartinelli4411 no the Malagasy people are not dangerous to give a lift to like the westerners in the west strange but true however I wouldn’t stop after dark

Beautiful landscape!
It sure is
You put this guy inside the car this time, is it because the previous one jumped out the back when you were driving. lol
