Day 1 in Zambia

After a grueling 30 hour journey, we have arrrived at our final destination in Zambia, Africa.  We were quite tired, but still had enough energy to go for a 1 hour walk with a couple of young female lions.  Despite that it's the rainy season we enjoyed nice weather today; no rain!  We are living in simple accomodations nestled in a game reserve.  So far we have seen lots of animals in the wild:  elephants, baboons, crocodile, various types of birds, antelope and more.  We are staying very close to the shore of the Zambezi river and expect to see hippos (we were warned not to wander for that reason)
