March 10 Visit Victoria Falls Zambia. It was one of my main reasons for travelling through Zambia southbound. I have traveled a lot of miles to get here. So, that today turned out to be such a m@therf*ker of a day is pretty disappointing. I do not like to swear in this blog because I think it is tasteless to write with swear words, but I can not think of another word that I want to describe the day as...
Livingstone: Zambian Tina Turner. March 9. Zambia is a country full of really nice people. Avoid Lusaka, the capital, if you can though. The other towns and the people I have met on the road have made for a really good experience. Livingstone is great. It is a safe city where you can walk anywhere, even at night, even as a foreigner. They try to keep it safe here so that the reputation stays...
Livingstone: Advanced Zambia. March 8 Today was a maintenance day. I spent too much of it working on geek things, but I need to do those things too. When I left the hotel, it was for supplies to keep me alive in my hotel cave. It is National Women’s Day and a business holiday. There were many women out in the town today wearing similar dresses. The colors everywhere were great. I have realized how developed and Advanced Zambia is...
Kazungala: A Town Tied to Four Countries March 7. My wonderful mother turns 70 today. I have a phone call to make tonight! So, there is a big difference between beer that is 5% alcohol and beer that is 4.2% alcohol. I had no idea that a small 0.8% could make such a big difference, but the difference is between getting smashed and being hungover or having fun and waking up feeling good. I have been consuming crazy amounts of...
Livingstone: Sweet Beautiful. March 6 Life. Mine. The zoo. The chaos. I really meant to take a day off today to work on about eight major things that need to be addressed. It was my full intention. Nope. It was not meant to be. I met up with Emmanuel for lunch. I have been in a backpacker hostel around white people so I have wanted white things. It is amazing how that works. I never crave a hamburger when I...
Hitchhiking Zambia: Kariba Dam to Livingstone. March 5 I decided that I wanted to escape from my 19 year old lady-friend so I packed my goods and checked out of my fantastic guesthouse. Girls who spend all of their time on their telephone when you are hanging out drive me nuts. It is probably her thoughtless and careless youth. Oh well, life carries on. [su_pullquote] The crying had taken place for about seven seconds when I could hear talking and...
