I must be mad.....
... loads of photos. I also saw loads of baboons and a strange looking deer. The last thing we did in Zambia was watch crazy people jump off Victoria Falls bridge. Having bungeed in Australia I had no desire to do another one, but it was fun watching ...
Victoria Falls!!

The Adrenaline Capital of Africa
I had been looking forward to Livingstone for some time. The mighty Zambezi plummets across the 1.7km wide Victoria Falls here. I was sorely disappointed upon seeing the falls for the first time. Truly pathetic. We are at the ...
Zambian side of the falls
Crossed into Zambia to view the other side of the spectacle. Very carefully walked through waist-deep swift current across the top of the falls, to reach a swim hole perched perfectly on the edge of the cascading waterfall. What a view down below, ...
IMAGES: Cascada

Here Kitty Kitty
After my walk on the wild side I decided to take it one further and go on a walk with some lion cubs. After my briefing about the do's and don’ts I was armed with a stick (!!!???) for my protection. Thankfully I didn’t need ...
Living life on the edge at the falls

First views of Victoria Falls
... soaked to the skin. They've had a lot of rain in recent months so the falls are very full. We walked across a bridge close to the falls and it was like walking under a powerful shower. You can only see a small section of the falls at a time, which is why ...
A quick stop through Zambia
... yelling 'sausage and chips' into a megaphone we would have been converted. One day later it was off to Livingstone - home to the Victoria Falls. It was truly amazing and can't be explained in writing. We went for a walk down to the water were we ...
Kayaking on the Zambezi
I don't think I've ever been quite so scared. We spent a full day on the river. We only capsized once, but it was on the first rapid and it took me a long time to get out of the canoe because the spray deck was so hard to get off. You use your ...
The Smoke That Thunders

Victoria Falls...no water??? Is it possible???
Another uncomfortable travel experience to only find that Victoria Falls was essentially dry. Who would have thought it was possible?I took a bit of a long weekend last week to finally go to Victoria Falls. I've been dying to go for quite some ...
Vic Falls
Victoria Falls are one of the seven natural wonders, so we were all geared up for a spectacular sight. However, we were left slightly disappointed as the falls were very dry. In place of the majority of the water was a fantastic rock formation. It was ...
White water rafting at Victoria Falls
This has to be a trip hightlight. The falls themselves, while spectacular were a little on the dry side. The following day white water rafting down the category 5 rapids was fantastic fun. Afterwards it felt like I'd been in a fight, sore all over. But it ...
Microlight and Me
... sure to say white rabbit, white rabbit, white rabbit this morning: I didn't want to risk any bad luck when I was flying high above Victoria Falls in my Micro light! The man arrived at 7.40am to collect me, with a man from Philadelphia in the van already - ...

Finally, the Falls

Well you might as well finish on a natural wonder!

The best day of my life
We decided to see the view Victoria Falls from the Zambian side of the Zambezi. Most people will visit the falls on the Zimbabwe side (so you are looking at the waterfall). The Zambian side offers a totally different view, one of the water going over ...
