Choma's Next!
May 6th and 7th Choma is 3 hours drive south of Lusaka on the road to Livingstone.
Although Choma is a small town situated in the farm area, this is in fact where polocrosse was first experimented with in Zambia so we hear.
Although most prefer to camp (and party!) by the field there are other places to stay in Choma, so if you are not one for "roughing it" you had better book early for the following lodges:
Kozo Lodge 03 320430 / 097 745583 / 095 619665
Gwembe Safari Lodge: 03 220169

Look's like it's going to be chilly so don't forget your horse blankets! |
