| Last stop on the main tour is Victoria Falls. We're here during the dry season so the flow over the falls is relatively small. You might think this would be a disadvantage, but it isn't. When the flow is heavy, there is so much mist visitors are soaked and can't see anything. |  Lyn and Mel |
We spent our first afternoon on the veranda of the iconic Victoria Falls Hotel.
Mary Ann, Byron, Karen, Randall and I selected a "Walk with the Lions" option we'd found on the internet before leaving home. This is a lion rehabilitation and re-introduction organization. Very young orphaned lions are raised by people until about 24 months of age, when they are released in a controlled environment where they learn to hunt and survive on their own. They cannot be released to the wild because they have developed trust for humans. Their offspring have no interaction with humans and once they learn to hunt from their parents they are released to the wild.
We enjoyed our farewell dinner on the Zambezi River.
