Victoria Falls!

 Last weekend I went on an amazing adventure to Victoria Falls for the first time. Victoria Falls surpassed my expectations. It was beautiful, full of power and inspiring. The falls are very full at this time of year, and especially with all the rain Zimbabwe has been getting, they were very strong. My friends and I became soaked by the end of our walk through the falls because the mist was so heavy and constant, it felt like we were caught in a downpour, but it was totally worth it! I now understand why Victoria Falls was once called or is referred to at times as the Smoke that Thunders!

It was also a lovely weekend because I traveled with a dear friend and one of her friends and a new friend we made through MCC. It was a wonderful weekend of talking, dancing and taking in some beautiful sights. We really only had one full day at the falls and an evening and morning, but it was worth the trip. Our day at the falls ended with a sunset cruise on the Zambezi River which was also a delight and we saw some Hippos, too!

Here are a few pictures of the weekend, sorry they don't really capture the beauty and power of the falls but they give you a small idea of why they are so inspiring and peaceful!
