  2. Actually, it's the Victoria Falls Hotel, a place I could highly recommend for a long weekend or honeymoon, unless Mugabe & Friends have made it FUBAR.. It used to be like having been transported to the glory days of the British Empire, and I half expected Dr. Livingstone to pop into the bar.

    I see rooms are now $200-400/night; when I was there, they were $10-12/night. Oh, well. I guess I'll never go back.

  3. Gonna second the Lt. Colonel here. I've been to Vic Falls twice. One word: Moonbows.

  4. Alear - Moonbows and rain falling upward. A magical place. Went up there from Jo'burg in a Lockheed Electra, and the pilot did steeply banked figure eights over the falls to give us a great look at them. Somewhere I have a picture I snapped looking down the wing at the falls, and you can see the ripples in the wing skin from the G, which cost many passengers their lunch. Seeing Vic Falls was one of the things on my 'bucket' list.
