After avoiding the city for six months, we took two days to drive to Lusaka. The first day we just enjoyed the drive. Instead of speeding up and slowing down for pot holes we just took it slower. I, Rita, spent the day crocheting. It was pleasant and my nerves were still in tack.
We stayed over night at Forest Inn. Other members on our team have stayed there and recommended it. It was nice to not be rushed and to just relax.
On Sunday we drove the remaining three hours to Lusaka. We unhooked the trailer and then went to lunch. I didn’t realize I was really missing anything or hungry, but the chips (french fries) were really good. We then went to the Sunday Market at Arcades and spent some money on crafts.
On Monday a family on our team left Zambia for their furlough in the states. We went to the airport with them, Steve helped them with their many suitcases and we waved goodbye until we could no longer see them. Then we also drove their vehicle back to the Guest House and handed in the keys for them. The rest of the day and on Tuesday we did some shopping.
On Wednesday we headed for Zambezi Breezes to camp right on the Zambezi River.
