What an amazing morning, we visited the great Zimbabwe ruins and walked all the way to the top, it nearly killed me. Rellie wasn't faring to well either. It was really high, but amazing, really wonderful, we both loved it. Our guide was so informative and told us all about the history, even to the king having to sleep with his sister to prove he was strong enough to rule.

The senior wife of the king taught all of the young girls how to please men sexually and then the king took his pick and his ambassadors go the rest. The last king has 200 wives. They found lots of stone didlo's, all different sizes, in the hut that was used by the first wife and the girls, it was very enlightening..... Men were definitely the master race in that group.
The place was really interesting, the brick work was amazing, all of the walls were made with no mortar at all. They had amazing skill.
We had breakfast at the Great Zimbabwe and then headed off, we spent most of the day driving. and arrived at our next accommodation later that day
Cheers for now
