Annual Flood Graces Sedia

Annual Flood Comes Rushing Down Thamalakane River

First the Flood was starting to enter the Hippo Pool at the Old Bridge - 11:40 AM June 16th. Then it started to build-up. Soon you could see that the Flood was 'pushing.' By 4 PM that afternoon it was passing under the Old Bridge at about 1/2 cu. metres per second.

By 6:15 AM June sixteenth it passed by Sedia Riverside Hotel and was making its way quickly towards the new bridge in Maun. It was a day for children, adults, dogs, cows and donkeys - a day to celebrate on the malapo. Pula to everyone!
