The story

After the safari in Botswana we conclude our adventure in Zimbabwe at Victoria Falls to see the most imposing waterfalls in Africa, called by the Makololo "Mosi-oa-Tunya", that is "The smoke that thunders". Beautiful, especially from above, even though not in full splendour since it's the end of the dry season.
