Jay
& Nicole's Adventures -
Victoria Falls,
Zimbabwe
- Jan 2001 (click any picture to get enlargement)
As part of my first visit to
South Africa to visit Nicole, we traveled to Victoria Falls. The falls
are at the top of Zimbabwe, the country just to the north of South Africa.
We had an enjoyable 2 hour flight and got settled into our hotel without
problems.
We decided to see the Falls via the "bird" in the background.
Note: This was my first helicopter
ride... wow, what an experience!

Raft Trip: We went on a
rafting trip down the
Zambezi River, through
the gorges below the falls.
We had Class
4 & 5
rapids (very dangerous)
and a Class 4 whirlpool;
it was scary & exciting!
