that thunders). While much of today is dedicated to viewing the mighty Zambezi River as it drops into the Batoka Gorge below, the bustling adventure town of Victoria Falls also offers a range of optional activities for those wanting a dose of adrenaline in the afternoon. For the more relaxed traveller there are craft markets and coffee shops on offer as well.
What a day! Travelled from Kusane to the border with Zimbabwe where there was the normal slow documentation found at most border posts. The international persons had to pay about $50 each to enter the country. Zimbabwe has open hands.
We travelled to the Shearwater Activity Centre where we were shown a video of all the activities they had on offer. Unbeknown to us many other centres also book the same activities. The group found another provider which had helicopter flights at a better rate, which we accepted. We went to the hotel to drop off those not doing the trip and were picked up by the flight people. We drove to the helicopter pad. Such service, such a trip. Wonderful!
I went for a walk in town past the places where they chop their sculptures. It was not a pleasant experience, with too many people trying to get me to buy their wares, worse than anything experienced in Cairo or Lourdes. However I managed to get some nice curios. Poverty!
