AFRICA HERE WE COME!
Well our next adventure is planned, booked and we are ready to go. Joyce and Brian are joining us for our adventure in Africa! We leave January 23, 2016 on a two day flight into Cape Town where we are spending a week tasting South African wine, sightseeing, checking out a secret supper club, a cooking class, a township tour and the boys are doing a shark dive while Joyce and I do some shopping.
We then join our G Adventure tour for 13 days as we travel down the cape point, then fly to Joburg and embark on a 7 day Safari through Kruger National Park. Then we fly to Livingstone to see Victoria Falls and take a few days to relax before coming home.
We are all super excited and hope to sample some great wine, authentic South African food and see the Big 5 on the safari.
Victoria Falls is one of the greatest attractions in Africa and one of the most spectacular waterfalls in the world, Victoria Falls is located on the Zambezi River, the fourth largest river in Africa, which is also defining the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe.
Victoria Falls is the only waterfall in the world with a length of more than a kilometer and a height of more than hundred meters. It is also considered to be the largest fall in the world.
The noise of Victoria Falls can be heard from a distance of 40 kilometers, while the spray and mist from the falling water is rising to a height of over 400 meters and can be seen from a distance of 50 kilometers. No wonder that the local tribes used to call the waterfall Mosi-o-Tunya “The smoke that thunders”.
