Welcome

My blog highlights some of my past experiences in travel from 1978 to the present. Some of the photos are scanned slides particularly the ones of Africa. The balance were taken with my Nikon digital camera and a variety of lenses. Enjoy all you see and comments are welcome.

Victoria Falls and the Victoria Falls Hotel. The Journey Continues

Victoria Falls constitutes one of the most spectacular natural wonders of the world. The Local people call it "Mosi-oa-Tunya" -- the smoke that thunders and the Falls are remarkable. There is a magic about them manifested in the towering column of spray when the river is high, the thunder of the falling water, the terrifying abyss and tranquil lagoons upstream in which hippo and deadly crocodiles lurk.

beautiful rainbows. that dirt tower formation -- is that a termite or ant nest? ugh. but those falls are huge and look like they are thundering. I saw the elephant....but did you get any shots of the killer crocodiles?

You really should print and mount these photos. I love the falls with the rainbow and the bridge. The others aren't chop liver either.

I am amazed that how good the scanning is.
