Don’t go to Vic Falls in October

Our first stop in Zambia was Livingstone, home of legendary Victoria Falls. Unfortunately we arrived at probably the worst time to see it due to the low water level of the Zambezi River, which produced little more than a trickle, instead of the roaring waterfall we expected to see.

The Zimbabwe side of the falls (which we were able to catch a glimpse of while still in Zambia) looked a bit more impressive however none of us wanted to deal with the hassle of crossing the Zim border to get a better look.

Nora visited Victoria Falls last April and said at that time it was spectacular. I guess April must be the time to go. It definitely isn’t October!
