hey you...
unbelievable last 48 hours! we stayed in Zambia yesterday at an authentic African village... in a round hut with grass roof and a mosquito net over the bed! there was no electricity... they had everything lit with gas lanterns. we had a sunset bath in a hut overlooking the Zambezi River and gorge... really incredible!!!!
we toured the local village and met the lady chief 85 years old descendant of royalty! we went through some of their huts, bargained for some carved goods... jim even found a guy with a license plate on the side of his mud hut that he found on the side of the road 6 months ago and bought it from him for his collection!
the people that served us were all from the village... made an authentic meal (weird things we've never seen before... all delicious except we passed on the tiny crunchy sardines! yukky!)
Tomorow we're going to Victoria Falls... hoping to do something else exciting there.
Back to South Africa on Wed. for a couple of safari places... time is flying. Wish you could see all this, too!
