Today we’re going rafting on the Zambezi River. We got up at half past six and packed our bags. We said goodbye to those who were up already and left to “Tree Ten†for breakfast, which is the
start of the Rafting day. We get some instructions about how to handle ourselves in certain situations. It sounds like we’re gonna die, if you hear all those things. We leave for the Zambezi in a
very old truck that doesn’t go faster than 60 km an hour. We get our life jacket, a helmet and a peddle and start on our way down to the Zambezi. It takes about half an hour to get to the
riverbanks, where the boats are already in the water. Our instructor is Penn and we’ll be rafting with five other people. Because rapid one to ten are still to rough to ride, we’ll be doing rapid
11 to 24. It was very cool!! Lou jumped out of the boat at the fastest rapid and Ceen joined him in the water a few rapids later. The Zambezi is very rough, and we almost flipped with the boat. We
had lots of fun! We arrived back in Victoria Falls at about 16:00. We got our bags and the key to our lodge. Yes! Doesn’t matter that there are spiders walking around, that there is only a bath
instead of a shower and that there are kakkerlakken (?!) enjoying the coolness of our fridge. We have normal beds!! We left for Explorers (local bar) at six, where we have dinner and watch the tape
of the rafting. After a few beers, we head back to the lodge and went to sleep.
