We entered Zimbabwe today and definity noticed the difference to South Africa immediately.
The luggage was dragged out and placed in a heap in front of us.
The toilet was 1 room with a woman in it that had to hold the door shut, then has to manually flush from a bucket of water she had as there was 'no water today'.
Then going through the imigration line you needed a visa. There are no stated prices so the person looks at you and your passport and states a price. How can you really argue??
Entry fees
$70 British
$45 USA
R 750 Canadian
$30 Australian
Then we used to get a private transfer from the airport to out hotel. Now we get a crowded bus.
Driving to the hotel we saw baboons on the road, people selling their wares, and elephants crossing the road!!
Welcome to Zimbabwe!! It made me realize how far South Africa has come on their journey as a country...and again more appreciative of the modern luxuries I have in the USA.
