Travelling to Ndevu

buying fresh vegeables Paul's two Landcruisers had been loaded and prepared by Chriss Weinand at Pioneer Camp near Lusaka. Chriss manages the operations in Zambia. However the chef at Ndevu, Greverton Sakala, had radioed in a list of supplies to be brought out. These included fresh vegetables and so a stop at a grocery store in Lusaka was necessary.


loaded vehicles As always in Lusaka the vehicles need a presence to deter theft. They also always attract the beggars. Here the unfortunate can only dream of western style Social Security.


Great East Road The Great East road runs from Lusaka to Chipata before continuing on to Lilongwe in Malawi.

Here we take a short break before the road drops down towards the Luangwa bridge.

After the bridge we continue another 70km on a road in sore need of major repair as far as Nyimba. From there we head north the last 50 km along a very primitive gravel road to Ndevu on the river.
