Ethiopia-Eritrea
Hi Tomread
I guess that you can forget to go from Addis to Asmara. The border between Ethiopia and Asmara has been closed since 2001. The UN Mission (UNMEE) which was guarding the border has been closed a few months back but both countries still don't talk to eachother. You have to go via either via Djibouti or Sudan. Via Djibouti you'll get into Assab (maybe) and then you'll have a long ride along the cost or Eritrea. Not sure if any of these borders are actually open.
I'm in Pretoria at the moment and will head up to Europe in the next few weeks. Would love to visit Eritrea since I have worked there for a year with the UN. If you get any infos on border crossing, pls let me know.
If I get any info, I'll post it here.
Cheers
Claudio
