Victoria Falls, Africa

My grandson, Lucas, took this photo from a helicopter over Victoria Falls. It is difficult to get the scale and size of it. The falls are over a mile long and amazing from both sides.   We flew in through Kasane Botswana and stayed on the Zambian side. Once at the falls, you can drive over the bridge and see the side in Zimbabwe (which is more striking). It is one of the wonders of the world. I will note that, while on the Zimbabwe side, having a beverage, I was mugged by a baboon. He/she was fast and big and took a fellow traveler's cookies. He/she pushed me out of the way and while I was not hurt, I was impressed.
