Mozambique-Monday 1st July - Friday 26th July

MOZAMBIQUE-TOFO
We left the Campbells house in Blantyre early so that we could get to the border as it opened. A long days drive through Tete and arriving in Chimoi later that day. We stayed at the Milpark Hotel campsite again and after an early supper we headed to bed.

The next day our aim was to get to the Save Bridge before 7h00 so that we could join the armed convoy that goes from north to south just after 7h00. It returns from south to north at 9h00.
We joined the queue of cars, buses, trucks, chapas and everything ran very smoothly. Soon after 7h00 the army samel led the way followed by cars, buses and then trucks. They dispersed army personnel on the back of bakkies and at various positions through the convoy.

It was a long days drive for Grant and we arrived in Tofo in the afternoon. We settled in at Fatima's Nest campsite this time as it is a little bit closer to the point for the kids surfing.

It is always great to be back in Tofo where everyday is more of the same. The Shepherds, our New Zealand friends that we met in Botswana arrived the next day. It was great excitement for the children as they reunited with their friends as if they had seen them just yesterday.

It was Meg's 10th birthday and we attempted to make a cake and have a small celebration for her special day.

The Harris family also arrived during the course of that week, so it was all systems go for the kids as this was now officially holiday. The goal had been to finish their allocated work by the time we got to Tofo. Bryce was working right up till the time we got to the armed convoy control point.

Bryce and Sarah started their course for openwater 1 scuba diving and every day they would spend time at the Liquid Adventure doing their lectures, pool dives and eventually their sea dives. They both passed their exams well.

We had really great weather and each day was spent on the beach swimming, surfing, supping with the occasional beach run.

After that went to the restaurant to have a look. In the evening we had a braai. Today in the morning we took a taxi to Vic Falls on the Zambian side. Did you know that Vic Falls was discoverd in Zambia but the most well known side is the Zimbabwe side? When we arrived I was so excited! The first thing we looked at was the World War  memorial statue. The one thing that is most different about the two spots, is that in Zambia it is not as smart but you get much closer to the Falls. Also it is really beautiful. On the first trail we did not get wet and we didn't get too close to the Falls. Before the next trail we got our rain jackets on and went. On this trail we went over a bridge, it was amazing. We carried on with the amazing trail and I was amazed by how much water comes down the Falls every second. P.S bring rain jackets if we didn't have rain jackets we would have got drenched. At the end we saw a huge baboon and Aimee freaked out. When we got back we had a swim in the freezing cold water. After a swim we did some work. Later on Mom did the blogsite. In the evening we had pasta. Tomorrow we leave for Lusaka.

FRIDAY 14/6/2013
Today we went to Victoria Falls from the Zambian side, it was awesome.  First we went on a walk called The Bridge Walk. On this walk we saw the falls crashing down and the rain forest. On this walk you feel like you are going to fall because the barriers are breaking up and not very stable. We also went on a walk were you cross a bridge and because the spray from the water is crashings so hard it feels like it is raining. It is a good thing that we had ponchos with us this time. I have got to say that I liked the Zambian side more than the Zimbabwean side because you get closer to the falls and because there are less barriers you feel like you are a part of them.
