Me at the start of the path to Victoria Falls
|
My first look at the falls
|
 |
 |
|
The bridge I took along the Victoria Falls path
that was surrounded by mist from the falls
|
I'm soaked after walking over the bridge
|
 |
 |
|
The heavy mist sometimes made it difficult to take
photos of the falls
|
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
The thunder of the falls was so powerful
|
|
 |
 |
|
The falls near sunset
|
A rainbow that formed over the falls
|
 |
 |
|
The sunset from the top of the falls
|
|
 |
 |
|
You can see the massive mist that rises up over
the edge of the falls
|
The locals call the falls "the smoke that
thunders"
|
 |
 |
|
A view of the gorge
|
You can see the Zambezi River in the distance as
well as the view of the bridge in Zimbabwe
|
 |

|
Me, still soaked at the top of the falls (upper
Zambezi River) for the sunset
|
A view of the Upper Zambezi River just before the
edge of the falls

The edge of the falls. Crazy how close you can
get!
|
Me asking if anyone has ever died doing this
|
 |
 |
|
Preparing for take off!
|
Up, up and away!
|
 |
 |
|
You can see how wide the falls is from here
|
|
 |
 |
|
Wow--we are super high up
|
To the back right of me you can see the twisty
gorge of the Lower Zambezi River. To the left is Zambia and to the right
is Zimbabwe.

 |
|
Waving to the camera!
|
The mist makes it very difficult to see how far
down the falls goes

White Water Rafting Orientation
|
As an American I was jokingly
asked to sign the waiver form twice
|
 |
 |
|
9 meters above the water
trying to figure out why I agreed to this
|
Scared out of my mind
|
 |
 |
|
This ballerina pose was not
on purpose

big wave
|
 |

We saw many different types
of rapids including Category IV's and V's

Wavings for the camera!
|

|
|
We took a break to wade in
some calm water

River, which we had to walk down and up in order to experience this
amazing rafting trip
