After we arrived back in the UK we were delighted to receive thank you letters from the British High Commission in Lusaka and also the Chairman of the organisers of the Livingstone Festival.

We left Lusaka by road on the 19th June and had a long drive to Livingstone with the instruments.  When we got there we were able to have a day out at Victoria Falls which was absolutely fantastic. 

Then we were onto the floats for 2 days of the First International Cultural Arts Festival in Livingstone created to celebrate the bicentenary of the birth of the Scottish missionary David Livingstone.
