The falls are a new formation in Geloigical terms as they were formed a million years ago as the riveer zambexi took its ...

... Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe so politically it's difficult to get a bridge in so Zambia provides a ferry. There is a queue for commercial trucks going back miles! We could beeline it to the front lucky enough being a tourist truck but that wasn't the biggets time factor. At the Zambian border, we got through ok individually but then got held up with the "truck payment". To amuse oursleves we had local sellers come by to try and trade or sell their goods - hippo carvings ...

... itinerary.

Retired back to Grubby’s Grotto (Grubby is the nickname of the owner) to wait for our all-you-can-drink booze cruise on the Zambezi. It was a good night out, 2hrs on the boat followed by a drumming session and then a disco. Taonga Safarais was the booze cruise company.

Dist cov. = km

29th – Recovering from the booze cruise, had lunch at Rite’s Pub & Grill and basically a lazy day. Came back to wait for my ...

We all immediately disliked Wayne because of his nasty comments about Americans that he threw at us in the first 5 minutes. We were not excited to spend 24 days with him ...

... are being upgraded. The chalets looked nice, and there are basic and luxury safari tents if you want a bit of luxury. It was really useful to have the lounge facilities to work on our laptop working on the travelblog and photos. The manager of the lodge is Australian (they get everywhere). Loads of birdlife around camp and signs warning beware of hippos, and we were told that elephants come into camp sometimes too. At night there ...

... make assignments complicated here, especially for grade one. I have tried to answer questions that people have sent me over the past couple of weeks. Please let me know if there is anything else I can answer. I guess I better do it this week! Hope everyone has a good week. Keep the emails and comments (and questions) coming - I am really enjoying them! Thank you!

... volume of water spilling over the top from what appears to be a gentle flowing Zambesi River just before the lip of the Falls. Yes, as expected we all got wet with water cascading down from the top as well as water being blown up from below. A raincoat helped a little bit. I could have taken my shampoo and had a good shower!!! Unfortunately the sun was in front of us so the photos and video clips are not the best. By us being early that morning that meant we had 3 full ...

... I emerged from the helicopter and couldn’t help but repeat, "Wow…wow…wow!"

I didn’t buy the helicopter video they were selling since the only footage from the day was of us getting weighed before the flight and walking out to the landing pad, but I did buy some Zimbabwe bills as collector’s items. I got a million and billion dollar note and later got some 100 trillion dollar for $1 each apiece. What an unusual ...

... organization, where AI is not - so that people will not expect handouts from AI (aligned with the skills philosophy). I am going to do the few things I can do from here this morning and put the breakin past me - until I get home. Thankyou EVERYONE for all your emails and comments and notes. I feel very blessed and loved. And if you see a Red Dell laptop snag it back for me, will you? Or just the info off of it - they can have the laptop. :o)

... bungee jump in the world (the largest is in Cape Town). The jump off of the bridge is 110 meters.  Its a really huge attraction and there were 5 people in our group who were brave enough to do it.  Rocko and I both were not going to even attempt it.  We walked over and watched them jump and I was scared sitting on the bridge.  I have no idea how they could have done it but each one of them loved it so it was cool to see how ...
