Zambien Sun

4 stars does not describe the hotel. Coming from the Mission and Hotel in Lusaka, the shower alone was a little slice of heaven. This place is beautiful! A short walk through a wild life sanctuary and we are at the edge of Victoria falls. Monkeys, zebra, giraffe and small deer roam the hotel grounds. They are wild! The monkeys like potatoes chips and don’t bother to ask when they want some… bring back memories for those who were here????
As diverse as the group is, so were the choices of activities selected. One of the girls in the group is going to set up a sharing location for all our pictures. I went white water rafting starting just below the falls and floated through category 5 rapids, jumped off a cliff into the river, swam with alligators that were 30 yards away (we saw them after getting back into the boat) and hiked what seemed to be a mile almost straight up to come off the river. Others went 4-wheeling, flew in a helicopter, rode and elephant on a safari, or like Elaine went into town to the market to shop.
We leave today back to Lusaka along the dusty trench filled road then to the airport on Thursday and home. We miss you and thank you all for your prayers.
