Livingstone I Presume?

Livingstone I Presume?? We are at the infamous Victoria Falls….. And it is amazing. The size of these falls is incredible, 1.7km long!!! We are only 5 minutes walk to the top of the falls and the it is just spectacular. I have been to Niagra Falls but this is a whole another scale of big. No footpaths or anything, just tracks through the forest that lead you to a little bridge that is immersed in a forever cloud of mist/spray. The flow is at about 50% and the sound is already booming/deafening when you’re close. The Zambezi Sun Hotel (where we staying) has a beautiful lawn all around the place, and animals roam around! So far i have only seen zebras but apparently there are some regular elephants and giraffes that sometimes choose to make themselves seen. No luck yet  But you can definitely see giraffe and elephant poo on the edges of the forest.

The bungee-jump is temporarily suspended because about a month ago the rope snapped and a chick plummeted into the water, luckily surviving.

Today was just another transit day, no timing. But on the road we saw a tortoise crossing it! He was a bit cute. And at a local cafe we pulled up to for about 45minutes, Matt and Owen (MG) pulled up and said they saw the same tortoise but about 30cm further away from where we saw him. Little trooper! Hahaha.

Tomorrow is the dreaded 1050km day, including a border crossing. It will be lonnnngggggggg.

On another front, the father/son beard growing is hilarious. Dad now succsessfully looks homeless, and i look like a ruffian. hahaha.
