To put it mildly our time in Livingstone was busy and anything that we did I would happily do again, and hopefully Mum, Dad and Tom would say the same. It all kicked off with Mum’s birthday on 16th which was celebrated in style with all of us being soaked by the spray from Victoria Falls as we crossed the Knife Edge Bridge; fun though the pictures in wet clothes may not be too flattering! We relaxed, got fat and bloated enjoying high tea at the Royal Livingstone. For the record Dad beat us all in eating the highest number of savouries and sweets. We continued the eating by going on the Lady Livingstone boat for a cruise along the Zambezi river, which from the top deck involved minimal effort with tasty cocktails, a few courses of canapés, watching the sun go down in one direction and then turning around to see a full moon rise over the Falls. We also spotted a few animals - crocodiles and hippos. Despite a few reservations Mum (with Dad and I too) was persuaded that she should climb on board a helicopter for an aerial tour of the Falls, which was spectacular. Tom took a different flying route and went on a microlight, flying lower and closer to the water.
