Zim and Zam

Today was an action packed day. In the morning we took a microlight flight over Vic Falls which was truly amazing. We then popped into the town of Livingstone and went to the local markets. It was quite an experience as everyone wanted to trade anything we had on us and were pretty pushy about it. After the initial shock we soon figured things out and managed to score a couple of nice thing to remember the place by.
After that we went into Zimbabwe for a Lion encounter. It was a captive breeding program which had tours so we managed to walk and play with a number of Lions. Yet another surreal African experience, especially trying to walk from Zim to Zam (Zambia and Zimbabwe) without a guide and dealing with dodge African borders. We made it out in one piece although we were a little concerned at times, the border guy with a AK-47 seemed a little concerned about letting us back into Zim (at the same time completely ignoring all the people who were obviously entering illegally).
We are out of Zim tomorrow after seeing the falls, and back into Botswana. We have some amazing photos of us on the microlights and with Lions and I will try tomorrow to get some up.
