We
took one year to plan this trip. Started talking about this in May 2013 , and
in September 2013, we made our first deposit to the local agent.
Africa is not what I expected. “
I came with no expectataion but you wow me” ( quoted by my travel mate)
Victoria Falls
We
hiked on both the Zimba and Zimbabwee side of the waterfalls. The Zimbabwee
waterfalls was volumous, it’s not blocked by trees like the Zimbia side. Except
for the waterspray from the falls, you can view to the far sight of the falls.
As we hiked, we saw rainbows everywhere. At Rainbow Point, we walked through a
path of rocks, turned round the corner and saw a bright rainbow arch that
amazed us so much that we paused to face the water and took lots of photos.
Safari
We went Kurger Park, which is government park and we drove in a normal car on the roads. We are not allowed to drive through the bushes to hunt for the animals . I thought it was pretty exciting especially we saw animals crossing the roads. In fact, we saw a family of 4 HUGE elephants crossed the road. It’s almost 2-story high . Kruger Park is nothing like the private reserves tho. We stayed on the private reserve for 2 days and went on 4x4 open top jeep and drove through the bushes to hunt for them. We hunted for the animals in the early mornings and nights ! Elephants , lions, buffalos were so close to us that we can pet them if we stretch our arms !
We saw the Big 5 ; the most difficult one,leopard on our last day !
The lodge , with the mosquito net… we had a huge bathtub, outdoor showers, indoor showers, of course I tried them all J
