Staying: Grubby's Grotto, Livingstone, Zambia
Song of the Day: Nikita - Elton John
After many movies (but not nearly enough sleep) we arrived at Victoria Falls, tired, but none the worse for wear. After paying US$30 eacdh for a visa, we were admitted into Zimbabwe and were met by our taxi driver. Phillip, a native Zimbabwean had a somewhat ratty taxi with no speedometer and the odometer clearly cut. He was a very chipper chap however, and answered our (somewhat sleepy) questions about his country. After escorting us through exit procedures for Zimbabwe, he took us to our Zambian driver, who had a somewhat more stately car with aircon. He escorted us through Zambian immigration (US$50 each) and on th "Grubby's Grotto", our campsite. There, we met up with our tour group, and despite our exhaustion we dragged ourselves to town for currency and food before returning for beer and bed.
