Toilet stop waiting for the others to come through the Nkotakhota Wildlife reserve where Clancy encountered the non lethal tsetse fly. We were not allowed to stop in the reserve as previously a motorbike tourist did not make it. The lions were well fed that day! Here’s looking at you Mud houses over a wooden frame and thatched roof. Note the round bamboo storage silo for the maize Houses just after the Luangwa river crossing. No photos allowed of the bridge. Note the 3 different housing types.
