Just love this and it’s made my Easter weekend! Zimbabwe resident, Jim McSorley had a special birthday last week. It was his 60th and he spent it with family at Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe.
Jim, originally from Fernslea Avenue in Blantyre has spent time also in Dubai, but now lives in Africa. On 25th March 2018, last week, as a little tribute to Blantyre, Jim took along his copy of “The Blantyre Project’s’ first book and placed it at the foot of David Livingstone, in that far, off place!
With stories inside of the Village and Livingstone’s early life, it was a fitting tribute to the great explorer and so kind of Jim to think ahead and do that! It made me smile for it means this is the 14th Country I know of that this book has ended up in! Amazing!
The Livingstone statue, Jim AND the book had the most wonderful of views that day, as Jim’s photos show. The falls look simply stunning!
Incredibly, by co-incidence and completely separately, Jim wasn’t the only Blantyre man at Victoria falls last week, as my next article till show……..
