If we don't succeed, we run the risk of failure.

Does a paved road still encircle the island?

Depends upon your definition of 'paved'... <grin>

We were there in the latter part of November and there were sections of the
road on the east side of the island that had been washed out, preventing
someone from actually driving all the way around the island... The southern
boundary of the closed off section started just slightly north of Punta
Sur... There was probably a couple of miles that were closed off... On the
west side of the island, some of the sections of the old road were also
washed out, but the new road was still in acceptable condition...
