Livingstone Guest Houses - Reviews and Rates

Our first stop was Livingstone to enjoy the many activities available around Victoria Falls/Zambezi River. The first day we went on a sunset booze cruise (luckily this time there was a toilet aboard)...which of course turned into a messy night of hook-ups, injuries and vomiting... I wont reveal in which ones I was involved in!!
Over the next...

I have been trying to take lots of photos this week of people and places here. I don't want to forget a thing. Then I remember I don't have a computer to download them to when I get home! Grrrrrrrrr!!! Oh, well. I am going to try and take a photo with each of my students individually, as well as a full class photo. I hope to then print them out ...

Ok, so I've left Christina with Megan back in Lusaka, took a 1 hour flight to Livingstone, home of Victoria Falls.  Ben from Lion Encounter met me and took me to their hq.  There are volunteers here from texas, virginia, norway, scotland, england.

My orientation was a client/tourist walk that people do if they are not working here.  They ...

This morning Rocko and I were up at six am so that we could be ready for our walk in the African bush in search of the White Rhinos.  Rhinos are really difficult to see because they are solitary and will spend large amounts of their time alone so when we go on game drives Rhinos have been the most difficult animal to see to date.  

There ...

Haha! Paul you were right! Now besides TB and malaria, I have the travelbug. This hostel is amazing! And the Internet is the fastest I've had here yet! Yes mom. I'm sleeping in a DORM. It's amazing how if you speak Nyanja here everyone is surprised and appreciative. I am meeting so many med students here in Africa- I found a New Zealander today ...

Victoria Falls is larger than Niagara Falls. The main waterfall falls down an enormous gorge and flows into the Zambezi River. At the top of the falls during the dry season there is a natural pool of water called Devils Swimming pool. During the wet season the whole area is flooded and the main waterfall turns into meters and meters of one huge ...

A sm*ll c*mp fire sets the first scene, pl*ying gentle, *lmost orchestr*ted, cr*ckling noises. Smoke rises str*ight up. Well choreogr*phed c*lls from bird...

We finally go on the road then and away we went. And then later on as some are sleeping off the night before and others are playing cards or reading, totally relaxing..then...we slow down real fast as there is a herd of Elephants crossing the road. It was awesome!! I got a video of part of it (trying to upload it now, taking forever). there were...

Had a pretty quiet day on Saturday but had a few amazing experiences. Went to the Hotel - Zambezi Sun which we can use free of charge. From there there is easy access to Victoria falls so naturally I made the most of the opportunity.and went for a walk. The sight is absolutely amazing and the noise is awesome. Definitely lives up to its title of...

We got the ferry over the Botswana border and headed to our new camp in Zambia - Saf Par Camp, which was beautifully set right on the edge of the Zambezi river. The pool and bar were right on the edge and there were monkeys roaming about all over the place! We headed straight to Vic falls, which I have to say wasn't that impressive as it was low...
