July 3, 2010 – Livingstone, Zambia
Tour Day 10 – Depart Livingstone
Depart Livingstone at any time.
Eric and I visit Livingstone town in the morning with our guides Charlene and Riaan. Charlene takes me to her regular fabric shop and Riaan wants to check out the tourist market, so we tag along for one last ride in the overland truck. We have a fun time shopping – Charlene’s taste in textiles is awesome – and they also offer us some excellent travel advice for our continuing adventures.
When we arrive back at the camp, we sit around the site for a little while and enjoy everyone’s company. As much as we’re looking forward to getting off the tour and back onto our own schedule, these past few days have been a lot of fun and we’ve met some pretty great people. In fact, we’re already planning a trip to Wisconsin to visit Tiffany and Lyn – Eric has promised them maple syrup and ice wine in exchange for a “Packers cheese-hat”.
Eventually the time comes for us to say our good-byes, after which we grab a taxi into town and check-in to a backpacker’s hostel – real beds here we come!!! Our plan is to stay in Livingstone for another day or so before continuing on with the next leg of our trip.
