A Little Bit of Mist
August 2nd, 2009

A Little Bit of Mist Victoria Falls was not a stop originally on our itinerary, but upon learning that it was our best option for reaching Chobe, we decided it was the perfect opportunity to add in an overnight and see the falls. nike officiel fjallraven kanken big backpack black pokemon go custodia iphone x tyui4809 I have been to Niagara quite a few times and visited Iguazu several years back, so was interested in seeing how Victoria Falls compared. coque samsung coque samsung We also enjoyed the chance to help tourism in Zimbabwe, given the economic trouble which the country is currently undergoing.
