Swimming on the Edge

I have these reality check moments where I have to remind myself that "Yes, you live in africa. Yes, you do ministry in rural villages. Yes, you are literally swimming on the edge of the 7th natural wonder of the world." You read this right, friends. Last week Dan (director of AMT) and I took our new amt students to the Victoria Falls. I go almost every month so it's lost some of it's excitement (but not beauty). However, this time of year it the coolest time to go because you can literally walk across the top of the falls. The water drops so low that there are just trickles going over the edge of the gorge. The coolest part is that you can find these pools with waterfalls, which are directly on the edge of the gorge. They make some of the best swimming pools in the world! Here are some photos of our adventure. If you don't know what AMT is, please feel free to read about it here: http://www.overlandmissions.com/AMT/.
