The Smoke is going to Thunder!

So excited, I can literary not contain myself! I can now reveal that we will be going on Holiday in November. Okay, it's only a weekend, but it's a weekend the farmer desperately needs. He has not been off this farm in 6 years!

On Friday 4 November, we will be flying to Zambia where we will be transferred to Victoria Falls on the Zimbabwe side. We will be staying at the Elephant Hills Resort for two nights, flying back on the 6th of November.

We still have to book our day trips, but can't choose what to do! Elephant back riding, cruise on the Zambezi river, lion encounters, helicopter ride over the falls. There is just too much! I know for sure that I want to ride on an elephant.

All this came together because Zambezi Airlines had the most fabulous travel agent special, and we could get really good rates on accommodation at the Elephant Hills resort. We will be jetting off with the farmer's cousin (who is also my colleague) and her husband.

Can not wait!
