Sunday, October 24 marked the 46'th anniversary of Zambia's independence from Great Britain. It's one of the few African countries that obtained independence without bloodshed. To celebrate, I took a trip up to the Kasama Peace Corps House. Volunteers from all over the country came to celebrate with us up in 'bembaland'. We took a day trip to Chishimba Falls and then a night bus up to Mpulungu (about 100k from Kasama). This is one of the home's to Lake Tanganiyka- the world's longest lake. It is surrounded by four countries (DRC, Tanzania, Burundi, and Zambia). It was absolutely gorgeous- clear clean water and white sandy beaches.
Would like to write more but the huge long entry I just typed out was deleted so I will have to come back again and try later!
