Victoria Falls..

No words..



Just Pictures.



It’s like living inside National Geographic Television.. without the television!!!!



This thing is scary beautiful.. the power and majesty.. You respect this.. and my pictures are of water falling at only partial capacity!!

The Victoria Falls or Mosi-oa-Tunya are one of the world's most spectacular waterfalls. The falls are situated on the Zambezi River, on the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe, and are roughly 1.7 km (1 mile) wide and 128 m (420 ft) high. They are considered a remarkable spectacle because of the peculiar narrow slot-like chasm into which the water falls, so one can view the falls face-on.
Vastly larger than North Americas Niagra Falls. Whilst Iguazu is divided into over 270 (relatively) 'small' falls and cataracts, Victoria is the largest single sheet of water in the world , over 100 meters tall, and over one mile wide.

And not to forget.. the family of elephants that we passed on the way..



I was about to jump out to take pictures.. when Abraham.. our guide.. told me I was nuts. Judging by his expression? I decided to stay in the truck.
