The boat slips away from the jetty as the last light thins across the Zambezi, the river daring you to lean closer to its banks. Low islands glide past in silhouette, hippos surface with slow indifference and the spray from Victoria Falls hangs like a distant curtain, sometimes rising 700 feet into the sky.
