The best adventures are those that contain surprises. There are wonders to be discovered by getting lost in the Highlands of Scotland or on the back roads of New England. There may just be a chance to meet a special character who changes your life. In ancient times these were sometimes known as angels.

Victoria Falls from the air and from the bush
The Zambezi River cuts through south central Africa. Where it divides Zambia from Zimbabwe, it tumbles into a canyon creating Victoria Falls. The top photo was taken from a helicopter and considering the falls are a mile wide it had to be from altitude. The bottom photo was taken from the trail along the Zimbabwe side of the falls. It is difficult to show scale, but a hint is made by the people on the bluff in the right of the photo. Huge.
These pictures were taken by my then (it was last year) twelve year old grandson, Lucas Meurisse. As we fly out of San Francisco, this is half way around the world. Everyone should begin their teen years having been on safari.
