    Another great video - such beautiful flora & fauna. I think the lionfish was Ricardo Montalban's "prized, rare fish" in one of the Naked Gun movies. Leslie Nielsen managed to drop Montalban's priceless pen (impervious to "everything but water") into the fish tank ... hilarity ensued.

    • @gicdjc
      @gicdjc Месяц назад

      Gerard looked this up: "Mosi-oa-Tunya" has been embraced by both Zimbabwe and Zambia to differing degrees. There are many languages spoken in the area today and it is not known what the Falls were called by the locals thousands of years ago. "Mosi-oa-Tunya” is of Kololo origin, but may only date back to the early 1800s when they moved from the area of South Africa into what is today Botswana and Zambia.

      We are pretty utilitarian when deciding where to stay, sadly "cute" isn't the top criterion lol. You will laugh, but aside from price and location which are very influential, we always look for rooms which have nightstands on BOTH sides of the bed. Why would any hotel assume that both guests don't need a place to keep their watch and/or phone next to the bed??
