Day 6

This was my last full day in Zimbabwe so I went to the most visited place in Harare, Victoria Falls, this is where I was taken on a boat ride around the beautiful site. My favorite thing about this place was listening to the falls hit the water below. The second place I went to on my final full day in Zimbabwe was the Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery to learn more about the person who the Victoria Falls were named after. There I was taken on a tour and it felt like I was witnessing all the events Queen Victoria took place in. After I left there I headed to my final name on the list, Wild Is Life, which is a wildlife preserve in Harare. I got too watch lions feed and feed a kudu named Sweetpea. I fed him carrot cake and it was unlike anything I had ever done before. I also saw cheetah run across the plains and giraffes gallop alongside the vehicle. After I was done with animals for the day, I went to Jaipur, which is an Indian based restaurant. I had allo wada, which is deep fried potato balls, they were amazingly good, so that completed my perfect last full day in Zimbabwe.

Day 5

On the fifth day of my Zimbabwean adventure I stayed in Harare again. The first place I visited was the famous Harare balancing rocks that was found as it is today. This place consisted of 4 large rocks balancing on top of each other and it was amazing to witness. The second place I visited was Mukuvisi Woodlands and that is where I was taken on a tour and I was taught about how we can preserve our environment. Before I went to the third destination of the day I had lunch at Coimbra, a restaurant conveniently placed in Harare, where I ate the peri peri chicken with garlic sauce added. It was my first time ever trying the combination of garlic and chicken, but it was delicious. The final destination of the day was the National Gallery of Zimbabwe, where there were tons of art pieces and ancient carvings on wood that was fascinating to look at and try to imagine being there when these pieces were created.
