 Re: Just 3 days in Zambia
What a great time to see Victoria Falls. The water levels are high between Dec. and July. They call it the smoke that thunders and the Zambezi river flows through six countries. You can either take a train or motor coach from Lusaka to Victoria Falls. In the Livingstone area, there are Zambezi River cruise at sundown where you can view the very large hippos in their natural habitat, variety of exotic birds and hot and cold food with a bar and waitress service, helecopter rides, jet boating, white water rafting, local jeep tours and cultural tours. Zambia prior to 1964 was considered northern Rhodesia and their independce day is 10/24/1964. Again, this is from my diary I kept so some information may not be completly accurate. The most amazing and largest barbecue I ever attended was next door to the Royal Livingstone. If you have the opportunity to stay there, it is well worth it!!! At times the people will ask for money, most of them were interested in pencils and tee shirts, so I brought both with me and gave them to the locals in the market. Hope this helps! ENJOY!!!! |
