Although Foleys, the land rover garage, is closed for two weeks while Nick is on holiday in the UK, we found someone to service the Landy just up the road from their workshop. Des had many an interesting story and showed us the wreckage of the Hilux he's rebuilding after hitting an elephant on the road at night! More reasons not to drive at night.
He dropped us back at Jollyboys Hostel and we spent the morning lazing around at the pool.
Once we had the Landy back and the day had cooled somewhat we drove out to Victoria Falls, right by the Zimbabwe border. It is the dry season, so the falls are not dumping as much water as they do in the wet season, although the mist still reaches you on the footbridge. They run fast enough to give you a sense of what a wall of water must pour over the edge once the Zambezi is full. We enjoyed a few hours wandering about enjoying the views, the mist and the roar of the falling water.
