On Saturday one of the volunteers from our intake had come down to Livingstone for a couple of days and so we decided to make out first visit to the amazing Victoria Falls .
The falls are approximately 10kms out of town which provides us with the opportunity to make numerous visits and observe how the falls change over the year. At the moment we are in the middle of the dry season, so the falls were quite dry relative to what they will be like in a couple of months when the rainy season is in full swing. Regardless of the season however, the falls were still incredible to see. I think I am best to let the photos tell the story!

We also came across families of baboons (they kind of freaked me out, particularly how close they were prepared to come to us) as we made our way down through the "Boiling Pot" towards the Zambezi River.

And on the way home, along the side of the road heading to Livingstone, we saw three elephants grazing on the roadside scrubs. What a perfect end to a great day!
