i am so happy you got to see Victoria Falls with so much water - it truly lives up to its name Mosi O Tunya (The smoke that Thunders), at my last visit there in 1999 there was just a few little waterfalls and the rest was dry. it is truly spectacular. thank you for sharing.
I believe you have to see both to really understand this natural wonder, I saw video my father took in the dry season and I was shocked it looks like a different place!
It was very impressive! You stand there and think how it is even possible?!? it keeps going and going and going, it's nuts the amount of water that is flowing in the wet season. That's why we would recommend to come to Zambia when they are at the fullest! Thanks for your comment, as always 🤗👏
Well: 1. It's a UNESCO heritage site so not many 'alterations' can be made to the waterfall itself. 2. There's is actually a hydro electricity power station not too far from the falls that diverts a portion of the river via canals just before the falls that was built about 60 years ago.
They are very much alive, we can assure you that!! Kafue was a bit of a gamble as normally it would not be possible in March like we did it. Not only we were extremely lucky to find it dry, but the weather was extraordinary. Happy to share and thank you for commenting 🤩
@@Thebluelandy Loved the Victoria Falls drone footage and anything off road with the Land Rover - you guys have had it all so far with mud, water crossings, tall grass, rocks, etc! Good driving skills Kai!
I'm slowly working my way through your catalogue of videos with much enjoyment. The narration and storytelling you are able to put into the episodes is fantastic, so calm, and it captures the vibe of where you are perfectly👍 Many thanks for the incredible effort it takes to post these stories for us all to enjoy🙏
perhaps time to invest in a radiator net! May be a good idea to remove the Td5 engine cover... most Td5's in Africa threw theirs out long ago. Unnecessary heat trap
Hey, Yeah you are right! Buying a net was one of the first things we did after crossing to Namibia, ever since we didn’t had high Gras anymore. I was driving for quite some time without engine cover, and I decided to buy one and put it back on. It is significantly louder in the cab if you have the cover of. I have to say the engine is well designed, and didn’t overheat even in the extreme heat (55 degrees) we experience in Iran.
@@Thebluelandy Good investment :) I noticed my Td5 was 'happier' with the cover off living in South Africa with my Td5 - also helps see if new oil leaks develop!
Spending so much time in driving as we do noise becomes an issue. We often leave the car in the evening with ringing ears 🙈 I spend a lot of times to seal all the oil leaks around the engine and I’m really proud it still is not leaking oil after 50k km. I hope it stays like that🤞
Thank you so much! We lived it there so much. Zambia will be one of our favorite destinations, not only the landscapes are beautiful but it has the rural side of East Africa, but also the convenience and development of Southern Africa, really good mix.
For the grass we usually use a small piece of shade cloth on the outside wrapped over the front grid tied from the front of the bonnet to the bottom of the bull bar. (I use bungy rope so I can put it on when there is grass and take it off when not and to clean.) Great video what an awesome adventure.
Wow so spectacular no matter how many times you see it that falls is awesome . glad you got to share that part of your over landing journey with your family , :):)🌍😁👍🏼so many great memories you all will now share together . Great video again you two thanks for sharing your wonderful journey and travel memories with us your over landing friends . Cheers from Steve Stott in Sutherlin Oregon U.S.A.
Hey Steve, the falls are just out of this world! Doesn't matter that they are touristy, they are so damn beautiful, specially full of water. We are so happy we could experience them with family ❤️ so happy to share, and read your comments always 🤗
Wonderful video as usual. Thank you for also showing the work it takes to do this trip. I to have plans on taking trips across the globe and have enjoyed seeing the unpopular mechanical details and gas / diesel stops. Please continue your great videos and thank you for them !!!
Hey! Thank you so much for following along. There is so much work behind 😵, happy that you also see it, not everybody realizes that we are not on holiday! We are enjoying it a lot though and would not change it for the world! Where are you planning to go?
@@Thebluelandy my wife and I are looking to do the road from stateside down to Argentina, with Africa being second. Your videos really are showing the excitement that I have always had in going there, but Alaska is next or maybe first 🤷🏾♂️😂🤙🏾
They are really smart! Super scary. And not only that but they don't die! We thought several times we did kill them and they came back to life like zombies 💀
Great (and wet) episode. Zambia is indeed a beautiful country. Can u supply some info on that "laundry machine" you were using in the video. I find it of interest as I usually battle with useless 'contraptions' to do the washing on the run. Take it easy and enjoy !!
Hey Henry! It is the scrubba wash bag. It is absolutely game changer! A lot more effective than hand wash. We use it mainly for underwear, tshirts and shorts. For bigger things we still need a washing machine. It is not cheap, but so worthy it! Our very good friends gifted us one before leaving and we don't want to miss it!
@@Thebluelandy Thanks for the info. Will look for it locally. From the video it struck me as very handy - as u have confirmed. Go slow and stay safe. Best for now.
As annoying those little buggers are, tsetse flies are the reason human encroachment into the park is almost non-existent as they can be deadly to people and livestock, but not to wild animals.
I've never thought about this, but it's so true 😲 funny that this little monsters might be protecting the wildlife and ecosystems more than anything else 🤔
This is so nice. Thank you for visiting. When are you going back to Europe? You enjoy the best all over Africa and keep Africans poor so they wouldn't understand nor enjoy their land. Thank you for visiting but please use your return tickets back to your countries.
Hi!! We really enjoyed Zambia! And the rest of countries we visited in Africa. What do you mean we(specifically we) keep Africans poor? We really want to understand your comment, because it's not clear to us. Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave a comment 🤗
@@QueenofAfrica1217 we don't have any! And anyway we are in South America now. We don't understand the hate towards us. But I guess you made up your mind about us. Thank you for taking the time to respond ✌️
We love our LIVINGSTONE TOWN TOURIEST CITY ,TWAHLUMBHA, ZIKHOMO 👉🇿🇲
Yeah Livingstone had a cool vibe, we liked it too and the falls are just incredible

Note is MOSI-UA-TUNYA in native language in ZAMBIA 🇿🇲 and in ZIMBABWE 🇿🇼
ZIKHOMO is thankful in Zambian language
The power of that water ! If only they could tap into it the energy it could produce.

Enjoyed the video. I miss this sort of adventure

I've been to Zambia for work, to visit a large farm in the north west. But not to the falls. Merci et restez forts !
You absolutely need to come back to see them, they are really impressive!!!
Once again a very nice natural video thanks for sharing, from Steve near Chester England 🏴 where the Roman's once lived
Thank you so much Stephen for the feedback! Any part you liked the most? Greeting from South Africa!!
@@Thebluelandy maybe you could pull the toyota out next time 🤣😍👍
The deposit was to high to risk much with the Prado 😂 we’ll try to find a Toyota in the future that we can rescue 😜
@@Thebluelandy 👍☺️
Excellent video, amazing landscape
Thank you so much! We lived it there so much. Zambia will be one of our favorite destinations, not only the landscapes are beautiful but it has the rural side of East Africa, but also the convenience and development of Southern Africa, really good mix.
Oh good, something good to watch with lunch today 🙂
I hope you enjoyed lunch & Video!
Thanks for watching!
I am glad you enjoyed my country, thanks for the visit 😊😊😊
Hey, thank you for watching! Yeah we really enjoyed Zambia! Thanks for having us 😊
For the grass we usually use a small piece of shade cloth on the outside wrapped over the front grid tied from the front of the bonnet to the bottom of the bull bar. (I use bungy rope so I can put it on when there is grass and take it off when not and to clean.) Great video what an awesome adventure.
My parents always used a piece of a screen panel or mosquito netting.
That's exactly what we bought,once we entered Namibia and found an store that had them! Before that we had to improvise with the mosquito net 😉
