Bottom of the Victoria Falls, taken from the Zambian side. This place is definitely a must-see, but is quite far from other places. I came there from Namibia and it is quite a long drive.. ..but it is totally worth it !! #BvSWater
The so-called ‘flight of angels’ is undoubtedly the most breath-taking way to see the magnificent Victoria Falls in all their glory, and to get those picture postcard panoramic photos you have always dreamed of. This is also a great way to see the Zambezi River as it leads up to the Falls, as well as the formation of the spectacular gorges that are carved out below. You can also take a microlight or a helicopter ride over the Falls. The extended flight covers not only the Falls but also Batoka Gorge, the Zambezi River and the Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park. There are wing-mounted cameras and a dvd of the pictures can be purchased after you land. The microlights can be booked for either 15 minute or 30 minute trips. This is the most personal way to view the Falls from the air, with just the qualified pilot and one client per aircraft. All flights leave from Maramba Aerodrome in Livingstone and are at the Falls within about a minute.

This barge is on the border crossing from Zambia and Botswana. Does look like much, does it? This is the only way for trucks to get across the Chobe River from Zambia into Botswana, also near the Nambia Border. One truck at a time, each way. I lost count after 250 trucks. At the passport control spot, we asked how long the drivers must wait to cross, and was told that it is between 10 and 14 days. DAYS. There were trucks carrying everything from Caterpillar tractors to bundles of pipe to furniture. Trucks were dust covered, and the drivers built little lives waiting for their turns - showering in their cabs, cooking meals on the side of the road. An industry had sprung up on both sides of the river, with little bars, food stalls, shops, showers. Prostitutes wandered from truck to truck in high heels and short shorts. There is a bridge going across this River, about half a mile wide at this point. It's something that the Army Corps of Engineers would have put up in a day or two. We were told, rather proudly, that it would be in fished in about five years. The business part of my brain realized what a huge economic waste this is. As usual, vendors hawked their wares, and uniformed officials took their time to stamp your passport, sanitize your shoes, and wave you on.
