Since I was called out, I have no choice but to say something and disagree. Do they have a Zambian name for the falls? I didnt think so. Besides, the Falls look more magnificent from the Zimbabwe side. The situation in Zim leaves much to be desired... but if you do go to 'Zambia', be sure to cross over to the Zimbabwean side, and go check out the 'Rain Forest.' Chui- is the livingstone statue on the Zambian side or Zimbabwean side. Zimbabwe- hmm, I wonder why. (not that I like it) But I am sure its there for a reason.
