7 – 9 September 2007

After Livingston we headed off to western Zambia. We planned to head as far as Luiwa Plains, but decided the cost ($100 a day) was too much. The roads through western Zambia are terrible... you could see everywhere where people had come unstuck in the rains...our winch paid for itself as we had to help a mad Chinese man who had got stuck. Weirder still was the Zambian man speaking Chinese!! Helped them out and carried on to Kabula Lodge. It was amazing as there was no one else staying in the camp, so we had it to ourselves. Went on our first Tiger fishing trip...we both got some strikes but never managed to land anything. Was very disappointing. But we are now determined to catch one...lower Zambezi here we come....
