Victoria Falls

Have I mentioned before that Victoria Falls takes your breath away? Nate and I saw the Falls back in 2006 with Nate's sister, Sara and her hubby, Eric. This time around was no less spectacular. The Falls were so forceful at this time of year (April) that we had to suit up in ponchos.




Poncho and all, we still got soaked to the bones while crossing the bridge. What a roar there was!


Have you ever been rained on from the bottom up?
 Anastasia was safely tucked away inside my poncho.

And here we are standing at the brink of the falls.

Don't step backwards! Back in 2006 BK (before kids) we all walked across this river and leaned over the very edge of the Falls. That was in dry season in July. There is no chance of that in April just after rainy season!

Vic Falls from a distance, still just as beautiful.

The morning of our adventure at Vic Falls this was the Psalm that I read:
The voice of the LORD is over the waters;
the God of glory thunders,
the LORD, over many waters.
The voice of the LORD is powerful;
the voice of the LORD is full of majesty. Psalm 29:3-4

What a beautiful way to start the day, and then to get a glimpse of the power of our mighty God's voice through hearing the roar of many waters. The LORD *is* full of majesty.
