Zambia

Zambia

We went to some big falls . We went on a boat trip there were rapids. There is a nice bar area at the camp site. We stayed for one night only. Afterwards we stayed in a town called Mongu. We stayed for 4 nights. The vice president of Zambia came to the hotel. It was a very sandy town. We tried to see the King of western Zambia. Florence

After Mongu we went to Kafue National Park. We saw lots of impala, other antelope, elephants, buffalo, hippo and a leopard. The leopard was about 2km from the campsite. There was a hippo that walked into the bar every day.
Then we went into Lusaka and bought some things for the special unit for the deaf children and for Chipembele.
We gave the children at the unit skipping ropes and frisbies, some exercise books and pencils, crayons, clothes and other things.
42children had to board at the school for 13 weeks each term. It must be boring because they did not have any thing to play with, no televisions or computers. It was a very poor school. When we walked around the school the children wanted to keep touching our hair because it is blonde. Tilly got scared.
Chipembele is a field study centre and local children to learn not to hurt or kill the wild life.

We went to North Luangwe and saw lots and lots of animals. We had to cross a 2 metre deep river and the truck had to drive through it. We stayed at Wild Camp and I was scared of the elephants and the hippos so I went inside the truck to eat my dinner.
We passed a lot of poor villages on the way to South Luangwe. The children's clothes had lots of holes. They did not have shoes.
When we got to South Luangwe we camped at a site called Track and Trail.

Malawi
We went to Lake Malawi and went swimming. Me and daddy went snorkelling at 6 o clock in the morning we saw lots of tiny little fish.
Malawi is a beautiful country because there is the sparkling blue lake.
We would like to go back to Lake Malawi.

Tanzania
We have only just got into Tanzania. It seems a lot richer than Malawi as there are brick houses s well as mud. There are more bore holes with pumps for the people to get water.
In 2weeks time we are going to meet our cousins in Kenya. It is going to be good b ecause we haventj. Seen them for 2 months.
The camping is fun but Florence doesn't want to do the trip again because she misses her friends.
