Thursday Thoughts – Not a Foodie, but…

– I maybe could have become one on this journey! At the Victoria Falls Hotel I fell in love with the coffee/tea set and plates – but don’t think it would be possible to buy any of this. I guess it was designed for the hotel only.

We had excellent food everywhere and excellent service. On the train everything was so delicious, but unfortunately my stomach didn’t agree with me. I did taste everything though.

Gorgeous soups – I love soups and should indeed cook more of them at home too…

And to accompany every course we always had an excellent South African wine.

Just looking at the menue was a treat before every meal, but unfortunately we were not allowed to keep it – so, I only remember a few of the courses. This was a tender springbok.

To my husband’s great pleasure we had plenty of dreamy desserts…

One of the sweet girls from the Diner cars – I wonder how many times a day she had to walk down that narrow corridor with her hands full?

With the train moving, at least we, the passengers, got many bruises from the railings trying not to fall over.

I never forgot to praise the chef and the brilliant service staff working in this tiny kitchen. Always good humoured and a smile ready for everyone.

Adventures, big or small, are treats to everyone. We learn from them, we treasure them…but in the end, the best thing is to come back home again. Or, what do you think?
