• Victoria Falls

    We saw Victoria Falls by water, and this afternoon it would be by land and air. We caught a taxi to the markets outside where the National park is for Victoria Falls. The walk was nice, listening to the roar of the waterfalls and feeling their mist as we approached. There were about 15 different lookout points along the walkway to look at the falls. It was beautiful but we underestimated the length of the walk and the heat of the day with the kids so had to end before we got to the end of the walk.
    After a quick nap at home and a shop, we left to get a helicopter view of the falls. Lennox could hardly contain his excitement at the helicopter field, and had his nose pressed against the glass the whole time. Rory enjoyed it a little less, but seemed amused at having her headphones on the whole time. The flight circled the falls before returning to base. It was an incredible flight and a wonderful experience to see the Falls from such a perspective and to experience flying in a helicopter.
