Drought in South Africa

I came across this article from Reuters describing the drought in Southern Africa focusing on the little water now flowing over Victoria Falls. Take a look at the photos from this article and contrast it with the photo I took just a few months ago.

The falls is typically spectacular and is known for generating so much mist you can locate the site in the distance by just spotting the water cloud.

We visited in what is the dry season (winter) and realized just how serious the drought was at that time. Since leaving, we have read stories on the hardships endured by the wild life and now found the images from Victoria Falls. This should now be the rainy season and to see the Falls at this date does make you realize just how serious our present situation is becoming.
