Hakuna Matata


Victoria Falls is spectacular!!!! I don't even know where to start. We were originally only going to stay for one night, and then head to Namibia. But due to infrequent buses, and our lack of planning we ended up having to stay here for a few extra days, which is completely okay by me. We've met some very awesome people, and have done a lot. I even had a job interview for an internship in Sao Paulo. I called using a bartender's cell phone. The connection was horrible, there was loud music in the background, and I was feeling a little tipsy. I highly doubt that I will get a second interview! Later that evening, we ended up going to a local bar (and we were the only white people there), in the cab on the way there we saw an elephant on the side of the road! In the middle of the town! Yesterday we went on a sunset cruise which had an open bar. We took full advantage. From the boat we could see hippos, elephants and warthogs. Today we went to the falls, and got absolutely soaked. I must say, Victoria Falls makes Niagra Falls look like a bathtub. It is stunning. In the afternoon we went rode elephants. It wasn't nearly as horrible as my experience riding camels in the Sahara. Elephants are way better than camels! We're leaving for a dance show now, so I'll write more about Vic Falls later!

  1. Crazy fun! Cannot wait to see pics. The tadpoles at the cottage pale in comparison to RIDING an ELEPHANT!
