Rainbow Falls & Livingstone

Rainbow Falls in the dry season, as seen from Zimbabwe.

Rainbow Falls composes part of Victoria Falls and often, when you look down, the gorge has beautiful rainbows.

Every photo I took of Zimbabwe, every photo, every painting I've seen of the Falls,
just doesn't do it remote justice.

Hello, giraffe!!
(in the parking lot of the Royal Livingstone!)

What a serene spot at the Royal Livingstone.

Hello, Zambia!  My first visit!

Into the Mist: the Victoria Falls Edition

While visiting Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe, in the dry season,

I was amazed by the amount of water still flowing from this natural wonder of the world.

Even in the dry season, I had to pull out a waterproof point-and-shoot camera because of all the mist!

INSANE, isn't it?  This is what this area looked like from farther (and drier) away.

I am excited to visit it again during the rainy season...where I hear the water is insane and you have to wear a poncho!

Pretty dramatic, eh?  So beautiful.

Victoria Falls in the Dry Season

Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe.

With a rainbow!

The Falls from Zimbabwe.

How different the Falls look closer than the Victoria Falls Hotel.

Even at the height of the dry season, there was a ridiculous amount of water.

The sound of the falling water was AMAZING.

You could hear it long before you reached the Falls.

I saw the Falls' mists and my first thought was holy moly! That is a LOT of water.

Victoria Falls is one of the seven natural wonders of the world.

If it's this much water and mist in the dry season, I can't wait to see the Falls during the rainy season!

All the water from the Falls leaves part of an environment similar to that of a rain forest.
