April 20 - 23
After enjoying Victoria Falls, we went to Bovu Island - a small getaway in the middle of the Zambezi River. It is only accessible by macoro (wooden canoe). We stayed in a small open air "fisherman hut." It was truly three days of VACATION! We enjoyed sleeping in, sunset macoro trips, family style meals, and partying with the other travelers in the riverside, self-service bar! We also visited the nearby village to see their homes, the distilery (an fire over a metal barrel, a pipe, and a wooden cooling trough), and share lunch with a family. The kids loved having their picture taken and seeing their face on the digital screen!
It was hard to say goodbye to the island and our friends John, Lizanne, and Ben - but, we needed to keep moving.
