WorldTravel > ChrisKean1  > Africa > Mozambique, Malawi, Zambia, Tanzania, September-October 2003
Overland from Mtwara, Tanzania to Ilha de Mozambique, Lake Malawi and South Luangwa NP, Zambia, then by air back to Tanzania via Livingstone. Great travel experience by pickup truck, bus and train, and some unbeatable wildlife viewing first in South Luangwa and then in Tanzania's Northern Circuit (Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti). Finished with a week in Zanzibar and Pemba. I bought my first digital camera the day before leaving for this trip, and tried to learn the ropes on the fly.

ChrisKean1 > JN, Zomba, Malawi
ChrisKean1 > Sunrise, Senga Bay, Malawi.  Lake Malawi made a good stop between Mozambique and Zambia.
ChrisKean1 > Zebra, S. Luangwa NP, Zambia.  South Luangwa is not nearly as touristed as better-known parks in neighboring countries, but has just as impressive a range of wildlife.
ChrisKean1 > Bounding hippo, S. Luangwa NP, Zambia.  The hippos come out of the water in the cool of night to feed, returning to the water by day.  They can be very dangerous to the unwary when out of the water.  But this poor hippo just wanted to get back to the safety of the river--so much so that it bounded over the embankment to get away from us.
ChrisKean1 > Giraffe with tickbirds, S. Luangwa NP, Zambia
ChrisKean1 > Kudus and zebra, S. Luangwa NP, Zambia
ChrisKean1 > Hippo skull, S. Luangwa NP, Zambia.  The authorities at South Luangwa allow walking tours, which are not permitted at many other African parks (or are permitted at great cost).  A walking tour really allows you to hear the sounds around you (not possible over a car motor), and to see things you might not otherwise.
ChrisKean1 > Mating pair of lions, S. Luangwa, Zambia
ChrisKean1 > Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe side.  From South Luangwa I headed down to Victoria Falls to get my flight to Kilimanjaro, Tanzania.  The falls were low at that time of year, which I think makes them more photogenic as more of the rock is visible.
