Last day in Africa

AI transferred back to Victoria Falls from Botswana doing the same bureaucratic process at the Zambezi border.  All in it was about a 2 hour drive to my last African accommodation.  My driver/guide was named Tobias and he was very chatty and full of knowledge. He is the one who told me how to tell a male from a female elephant other than the obvious. We also talked about the big 5, the little 5 and the ugly 5. I guessed 4 out of 5 in the ugly 5 category.  He also told me lots of facts about David Livingstone who is clearly revered around here.

I basically chilled out all day but I took an amazing dinner and sunset river cruise on the Zambezi River tonight.  What a great way to end my African adventure.

Some of the lovely baskets and wire animal heads.

Breakfast is great too, a crustless quiche and warm scone.
