Here is one of the Victoria Falls - on the border of Zimbabwe and Zambia. This is the view from the Zimbabwe side. Across the waterfall - it is Zambia. The river in question is the Zambezi....very wide at this point - about a mile when it falls into a deep gorge. Raises a lot of mist in that area - it is known locally as Mosi-oa-tunya - meaning 'smoke that thunders'.

I had gone to see this fabulous sight when I went to Zimbabwe on a business trip several years ago. Had the opportunity to fly in a small 4 seater plane over the waterfall ...was a wonderful, unforgettable experience - I was sitting right next to the pilot !!
