Zambia/vic falls

Today we are in Livingstone Zambia! We went to vicotira falls… I thought this would be uneventful, you know just looking at the falls, but we ended up hiking to the bottom of the falls in this thing called the boiling pit, whih I thought would just be stairs, but not really—we waded through two streams and climbed over a series of rocks to get to the bottom (after the stairs). When we got to the bottom there were tons of little Zambian boys from a soccer team already down there who were apparently really excited to see us and started taking pictures with us. Then they helped us to find limes since there are tons of lime trees at the base of Victoria falls!! After we climbed back up (much easier), we decided to buy some food from local vendors—which was nice, except baboons grabbed our food. The first time, we didn’t know it was coming and it just grabbed a bag of fruit. But the second time we were trying to run away from it and it chased me and grabbed my peanuts!!! Then it did a victory jump/dance while the Zambians around laughed at us. It was pretty funny, but that’s the second time a baboon has stolen my food. Next time, I will throw a rock at it. Grrr. Anyways, after that we got rained on again—friends where supposed to bungie jump but it wasn’t a good idea in the rain. We ended up coming back to town... Its amazing here! There are mango trees everywhere. No one even sells them, we just pick them off the trees! They are delicious—plus at the open market we saw mushrooms and eggplant and bellpeppers and avacadoes. Really though I’m excited to eat anything we can get off the tree. That’s all for now!
