Victoria Falls from the Zambian side, July 2010

(NOTE: It's confusing, but when you get to the bottom of this page there is a tag saying either older or newer posts, click this and you will be taken to the rest of my posts)

I managed just for a morning to go and see the falls which were in full flood and amazing to see. The last time that I had seen the falls was when Harriet, Alyson and I spent a month in Botswana after A Levels, so its been a while ... starting with dead old Livingstone, here are a few pictures



 

 
















Okavango Delta July 2010

I was in the Delta, based at Abu and Seba Camp for a ''job'' and had a wonderful time ... not lots of photos but a few to share.

South Luwangwa Valley August 2010

South Luwangwa, Mfuwe Valley, was an interesting place. I was based at Mfuwe Lodge again for ''work'' and was only able to stay sane due to a few wonderful people .. thanks guys! When the job finished I had the opportunity, thanks to Sam and Dawn to go to Lion Camp for an amazing week of fantastic food, company and game drives. These photos are just some of the beautiful places in the Valley and some of the wonderful friends that I made.


 Thanks Emma, Polly, Hazel (that is an ele from Hazel's window), Brinsley, Floyd, Rosie and Tatum
