Livingstone

Safe and sound in Livingstone!  Nothing too exciting today.  We took our seven hour bus ride down, which wasn’t terrible but not exactly the most comfortable ride either.  Our hostel is fantastic (although the pillows have some questionable stains on them): we have a pool, a pool table, a fire pit, a restaurant/bar, and guides to help us plan out all the fun things we’re going to do here.  Tomorrow, we have a half day pass to the gorge which allows us jump off the gorge in a swing, use the gorge slide (not quite sure what that is…could it really just be a big slide?) and zip line as many times as we are able to.  We’re also given breakfast and lunch and then will be driven to the entrance at Victoria Falls and will spend the rest of the day there.  I can’t believe I just typed that paragraph…this is so awesome! Monday, our day is going to be equally as wonderful – an elephant safari and a cruise!  The elephant safari includes riding around on an elephant, feeding them, and playing with the babies. 
            Right now, we are eating our dinner (which is of course delicious), watching soccer on TV, and resting up for our fun adventures in the next few days.

  1. Which hostel are you staying at? Enjoy your trip! It's funny to think that Tammy and I were there exactly one year ago too....doing almost the exact same things as it sounds! :) Gorge swing = AWESOME
