After an early breakfast at Musekese and having said goodbye to our hosts and an English family who were on holiday in Zambia and returning home today, we had a very fast boat trip back along the Kafue River to load up our vehicle for the long journey ahead. Very soon, we stopped to look at a party of spurfowl which came very close and were photogenic in the early morning light.
