Di ‘MUSIC BY MOONLIGHT’ - WEEK-END 13th to 15th JUNE, 2003 Can you imagine sitting under a full moon, with a glass of wine in your hand and listening to the music of members of the Bulawayo Philharmonic Orchestra, the well-known ‘Trio Conbrio’ and the harmonies of ‘Ingonyama’ a local mens choir – whilst in the background elephants are splashing at a waterhole in Hwange National Park!!! National Parks Main Camp has put together this most innovative and exciting week-end for you to experience the magic of full moon, beautiful music and wonderful wildlife. The week-end begins on the evening of Friday 13th June after your check-in at Hwange National Park, Main Camp, or any of the fine safari lodges surrounding the Park. You will be welcomed with traditional marimba music and lively dancing and drinks are available from the bar and an excellent dinner menu is served at the Waterbucks Restaurant. On Saturday morning lie in, take a morning walk with one of the experienced guides or drive into this famous Park and look for animals such as elephants, giraffe, sable and if you’re lucky even a pride of lions. At lunchtime back at Main Camp there is plenty of time to socialise and enjoy light classical music by Trio Conbrio at Waterbucks Head plus a special performance by the very talented, conservation drama group, Ingonyama. This group performs plays written to spread the conservation message by means of mime, song and dance. The afternoon is free to explore the Park. Saturday evening is the highlight of the week-end and begins with a moon-light drive (in your own vehicle) into the Park at 7pm to your theatre at Nyamandhlovu game-viewing platform. Informal seating with evocative lamp-light has been arranged below the platform or safari operators may bring their open vehicles. Trio Conbrio will be playing a full hour of well-known light classical pieces including the beautiful Out of Africa theme. Bring your picnic dinner and while you eat and drink enjoy the music. To add to the evening there will also be a special performance by the Ingonyama choir; a local choir who will perform traditional African songs and harmonies – these are a talented group of singers and their soft, deep voices are perfect in this moonlit setting. Sunday morning there is time for game viewing in the park, perhaps a drive to the platform at Guvalala. Trio Conbrio have kindly offered to give a second recital in front of the Waterbucks Head restaurant from 12:30. In the afternoon guests depart the Park at leisure.

Contact : 251579 or 011403895 C A M P A M A L I N D A A Wilderness of Granite We wish to welcome you to our magical place of stone. We look forward to sharing with you our passion for these amazing hills. The granite domes and castle kopjes of the Matobo Hills, Zimbabwe are among the most majestic rock sceneries in the world. Nestled in these unique range of hills is Camp Amalinda. Amalinda consists of nine individually thatched rooms including 2 honeymoon suites which are set into the huge boulders. These two suites have just recently been refurbished and it brings us great pleasure to introduce to you for the first time "The Lobengula Suite" and the "Rhodes Suite". Each are steeped in African historical artifacts of a bygone era from these two famous men who walked around these very rocks. ACTIVITIES • Game viewing by vehicle or on foot. Track the “horn of sorrow” as they have become known – the endangered black rhino. White rhino are easier to see in these parts and our experienced guide will take you safely there. • Explore the hills where mysterious nomads once held their sacred ceremonies. The rocky granite topography boasts more than 2000 sites of the San (Bushman) tribes and is probably the richest source of San rock art known. This area and several famous rocks here (known to our local Ndebele people) hold spiritual significance of bygone rituals. Today you can learn all about their trials and tribulations. • Drive through the mountains in the footsteps of Cecil John Rhodes. Visit his world famous tomb known as the “View of the World”, it’s an experience guaranteed to send a thrill down your spine. Leander Starr Jameson and the spirits of hundreds of soldiers, killed in battle with the Matabele warriors, gather around at sunset. It has become known as "the dwelling place of spirits" or rather "Amalindidzimu" as the locals call it. The view will leave you gasping……… The stories of Rhodes wanderings and dealings with Chief Lobengula will keep you entranced for hours. The man was so revered by the Queen, that even a country was named after him, Rhodesia. The Indebele will tell a tale about Rhodes’ lies and deceit of King Lobengula and of his father, Mzilikazi. • Take a tour to an African homestead and get down to earth with the local Indebele people. Enjoy their gracious hospitality as they show you around their “pole and dugga” huts. Then move on to the rural clinic and come face to face with a Traditional Healer. With the offer of a few Zim dollars, she may even heal your ailment. The primary School which we move on to next will bring you to understand that no matter what diversity children face, one of their basic wants is to learn. The school is sponsored by us and through our guests staying at Camp Amalinda. Many projects at the school and clinic have been completed through generous funding which has been channelled through us. · Relax by our specially designed rock pool which overlooks the waterhole whilst sipping on a cocktail. Indulge yourself in a full body massage or simply soak up the sun and the environment – the majestic black eagles will spy on you from above. · Walking on our property is entirely safe – you could bump into warthog, zebra, klipspringer, kudu, impala, reedbuck, duiker, steenbok, hyrax and a vast variety of birdlife. Watch for the illusive leopard, although he'll see you first ..... • We are in a malaria free zone and children are most welcome. Children can spend their days rock climbing and chasing rock lizards, skinks and Giant Plated Lizards. Our friendly staff are on hand to cater to your every need and together with them, we extend to you our warmest welcome.

We offer sincere sympathy to the families of the following :
"A PESSIMIST FORGETS TO LAUGH, BUT AN OPTIMIST LAUGHS TO FORGET!"
A WOMAN IS LIKE A TEA BAG... YOU DON'T KNOW HOW STRONG SHE IS UNTIL YOU PUT HER IN HOT WATER
When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it...always. Mahatma Gandhi
"Cowardice asks, is it safe? Expediency asks, is it politic? Vanity asks, is it popular? But conscience asks, IS IT RIGHT? There comes a time when one must take the position that it is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular------BUT one must do it because conscience says it is RIGHT!" Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. |
