Livingstone town is the home of the mighty Victoria Falls... and this is our destination that Molly and I embarked on this trip that morning. A 'short' drive of one thousand odd kilometers that started with a 'drama' in another town on the other side of Zambia. Why this trip?

...Because of the allure of the Victoria Falls. Locally it's known as Mosi-Oa-Tunya, literally translates to "the smoke that thunders!" But then that is the end of this story. First things first! We were happy to arrive by car. This meant a stretch of our crumpled limps and a good night's rest.

Fairmount Hotel, one of Zambia's earliest establishments is just on the throughway as you enter Livingstone. We didn't need any persuasion so I slowed down and took the right turn into the hotel's parking lot near the reception. Fairmount Hotel was where we spent a night.

The following morning after a good night sleep and a hearty good breakfast we were ready to leave. It was the day and the time to meet with our destiny. We had planned this back home, on the other side of this amazing country. So we drove a couple of kilometers and we were in Livingstone central business district.

As we drove past I pointed out to Molly the country's oldest and major museum in Zambia. It stands on the town's main throughway but on the right. The Livingstone Museum has an interesting history but that is another story!

We continue driving past the town's central business district, and the main buildings and...Voila! There it is... southern Africa's house of adventure. This is the Adventure Centre on the right side of the road just outside the town. The building's choice of colours is rather unique and makes it stand out. Pinks, whites and yellows...and the writing too!

The Adventure Centre houses various adventure companies... companies that provide various safari adventures of your lifetime. Just think of the;
