Safari - Part 1

August 2, 1999 through August 25, 1999


Victoria Falls...Zambia side...with a bonus rainbow!   Our friends Mark from Holland and Delphine of Paris join us while Ienemini of Holland snaps the digital!  Vic Falls is also known as Mosi-oa-Tunya  or "the smoke that thunders."  The Falls are 1700 m wide and 545 million liters of water per minute pour into the gorge during the peak season.  We rafted through the gorge and Zambezi river...exhilarating!
