We are leaving this morning for Victoria Falls but we had time for one last boat ride.  We didn’t see any new animals so I will spare you the pictures.

When we returned, we finished packing, and were picked up by a transfer company in a open safari vehicle.  We had a 45 min ride to the Botswana/Zimbabwe border.  At the border we had to immigrate into Zimbabwe.  The immigration office was a trailer with windows.  It took a very hot hour to get up to the windows.  Once we cleared the border we were off with our new driver whose name was Innocent.  On our way to Victoria Falls, Innocent told us about Zimbabwe history, the recent elections, etc.  He was very informative. 

Once at the hotel we had a late lunch and then a little time to relax before our sunset cruise on the Zambezi Queen.  We were on the signature deck. It was very posh.  They gave us lots of drinks and hors d’oeuvres. We cruised the Zambezi River and along the way we saw elephants, hippos, and baboons.  The sunset was very pretty and we enjoyed our time.

After the cruise we went to a restaurant called The Three Monkeys for dinner.
