Yesterday we whitewater rafted down the Zambezi and it was UNREAL! we got smashed around in the water and tossed out a few times but it was worth it. They were Class 3, 4 and 5 rapids - BIG ONES! Mid way down we stopped for a break on this amazing white sand beach in between the canyon of Zambia and Zimbabwe. I cant describe it. The photos say it all. I have a load that we bought from our Guide and will upload them ASAP!
On the way back from rafting we went through this small town and something about it spoke to me. so when we got back to camp me and 5 others arranged for a taxi out there today and we are meeting with the village chief, donating my sleeping bag and a blanked, bought pens, work books and pencils for the school kids and got a soccer ball so we can play a short game with the kids and then donate the ball. I have a feeling today is going to be really special.
We leave our GAP group today and it really sux because we have made some really great friends. but such is travelling. off to the next adventure!
We will be staying in Livingston for the next few days as we changed our plans a bit and will not be heading to Lusaka after all, and will be getting the bus to Pretoria from here instead. Its gonna save us hours of travel time, which is really more important than anything.
Internet here is unreliable so I will run for now and talk again soon!
keeping safe and having the time of our lives!
