Victoria Falls was pretty spectacular. (The only thing of note in Zimbabwe...unless you include the astronomical and soaring inflation.) Here, the Zambezi river, after meandering through Zambia, spills over these falls into an enormous gorge that's split across the border of Zimbabwe and Zambia. This natural wonder (one of the 7 of the world) inspires awe. Its momentus scale, its towering plumes of mist and the mountainous roar, reminds me how grand the natural state of the planet can be. Left untouched for over two hundred years, this river and fall flows just as it did when first sighted by Stanley Livingston, a Scottish Missionary in the early 1800's. We took a helicopter tour as well as a foot tour. Spectacular.
