Victoria Falls: Source of Aquatic Music


Victoria Falls
It was really a great and long journey. After having passed the vast green lands, we entered Zambia, the country of Victoria Falls, the country of the generous people who are remarkably renowned for their hospitality.

It was almost midday,when we got down from the bus and touched the soil of Livingstone city, the region of Victoria Falls. It's situated in the eastern part of Zambia. The weather was magnificent, very soothing with a moderate temperature. Getting off the bus, we yearned for a safe and friendly accommodation. Thanks to the help of locals, we very soon became capable of finding a calm and quiet hostel: Livingstone Backpackers. With an enormous open-space and a swimming pool, our lodge was presenting itself an attractive location for spending time in full relaxation. In brief, it is a small worldly  heaven for fatigue travelers. Though, the first impression has faded at night when lots of mosquito attacked us and the authority failed to provide us the mosquito-nets. In the middle of the night, we, being horrified of mosquito's sting, came out of the hostel and longed for finding out any shop from where we could buy mosquito-coil or aerosol. Finally we discovered an about-to-close supper mall and bought our highly desired mosquito killer product. We at last could save ourselves from passing a sleep-less night. Later I never forgot to suggest others, who came across to me for tips on traveling Africa in particular Zambia, for carrying aerosol or mosquito-net.

Living with Flower

Flowers are always beautiful. My days of Bunia were full of scent of flowers.
Generally military belongs to a tradition of growing and taking care of flowers and orchids in the premises of their office or residence. Very close to my room there was a long and tiny garden with many flowers that increased the scenic beauty of the surrounding. Its fragrance stimulated me a lot and could make my day enjoyable and refreshing.
