Die Viktoriafälle - Afrikas Garten Eden

One can see them from distances up to 30 km: Like a mumbling, bubbling volcano, ready to erupt, a glowing cloud rises from the earth. This is how one can experience the Victoria Falls at sunrise. Locals call this: “The smoke of thunder”. Especially in the dry season, an unusual migration begins: elephant families come here from the Hwange National Park, 100 km away. Then a wonderful and very rare spectacle occurs: they swim through the Zambesi as if they were a huge string of pearls. (National Geographic)
