Having spent a quiet morning at our back-packers accommodation we headed to the falls for our "Island walk". This entails wading across the first half of the falls to reach the island where David Livingstone first stood to admire one of the eight wonders of the world. 
Obviously it can only be done in the "dry" season but it allows spectacular views of the falls from close proximity. Perhaps a little too close for some peoples liking! You have the opportunity to jump into "devil's pool", a 3.5m deep pool that is as close to the edge as you can get and which, because of the depth, is "safe" to swim in. It was originally discovered by a hot and weary fisherman - I don't think it would have been my first choice of places to cool off!
