Livingstone Museum

After the flight, they took me right back to my hotel where I just chilled until lunch when I headed down the main drag, stopping for lunch at a nice restaurant along the way to what is considered Zambia's best museum.

It had galleries covering just about every topic, from early hominids to stone age tools to village tribal life and the complete history of Zambia to modern politics. The natural history gallery had a pretty complete set of nice dioramas of just about all aspects of animal and plant life.

Finally there as a room devoted to David Livingstone with many of his own possessions and a collection of his letters. An interesting life and he is actually still admired by the Zambian people today.

The museum is quite old and the style of the displays old school, but the descriptive text is very complete. The main issue was the lighting was poor and half of the text placards were too dark to read.

Walked all the way back to the hotel, and just had 20 minutes before getting picked up by a driver I booked to take me to the falls national park entrance.

No photos allowed inside, so just the Penguins footprint here.Read more
