Victoria Falls

Michael Gorey at Victoria Falls

This is the last in my current nostalgia series. The photo was taken in October 1990 at Victoria Falls from the Zambian side.

I did a week-long tour of Zimbabwe and really enjoyed the spectacle of the falls. With another Australian, two Swiss and an Italian we hired bikes, hazarded the border crossing and took a glimpse from Zambia as well.

We paid a kid to watch our bikes while we walked a steep part of the bush track. We also haggled with traders for souvenirs and I picked up a nicely carved wooden hippo.
