Zimbabwe

We made it across the Zambian border and are currently in Zimbabwe at Victoria Falls. It’s one of the most amazing places I have ever seen and there is so much to do here.  Yesterday we did “The Flight of the Angels” over the Falls. It’s basically a flight in this little tiny plane with a small propeller in the back and no windows or doors. You are exposed to everything! It’s just you, the pilot and the fresh air. Victoria Falls looked amazing from our view and I hope to post pictures soon. We weren’t allowed to take cameras with us, but they did mount one on the wing of the Microlight and I purchased the photos, but unfortunately they are on a CD and I don’t have a disk drive on my netbook.  After the “Flight of the Angel’s” we had to go through the border and pay for our visas to come to Zimbabwe. It was a very hot day so we had a few of the windows open in the truck and we noticed a monkey hanging out on top of a Semi.  We didn’t really think much of it, but then the monkey started to make his move towards our truck and everyone was frantically trying to close all the windows before the Monkey could get in. We were able to close all of them but one and the Monkey had beaten us to it and poked his head in. None of us knew what to do and you could tell that this little guy was no Curious George, the animal was hungry and had sharp yellow teeth.  He looked like a mean little hairy monster waiting to attack. One of the girls on our truck started yelling at him to get out and started banging and stomping on the seat. The Monkey finally retreated on the roof of our truck and we closed the window without incident. I was really relieved that the monkey didn’t get in and bite anyone.
