Tough guy, eh?Tough guy, eh?Tough guy, eh?

Little elephant makes a big stand
Highlights from Zambia:
• Sleeping with Hippos grunting and lions roaring across the river at South Luangwa Park
• Fighting off hoards of bugs while trying to cook dinner - no lights!
• The unmerciful 80km, 3.5-hour road into Livingston… bump, bump, bump
• Grubby's Grotto - can you believe we camped at a place with that name?
• Swimming in Devil’s Pool on the edge of Victoria Falls - once in a lifetime or twice if you’re lucky!
• Pimms & High Tea on Livingston Island - how posh!
• Rafting & River-boarding down the mighty Zambezi river: R-E-S-P-E-C-T

Until Next Time…
