Place of Many Elephants

Gonarezhou National Park is situated in the south eastern lowveld of Zimbabwe and covers an area in excess of 5 000 square kilometres. The 'Gonarezhou" meaning "Place of many Elephants" is an extremely scenic Park full of rugged and beautiful landscapes.
Alternative folklore suggests the area was named for the herbalists who would stock their medicines in tusks (known as gona in the Shona language). Another possible name for Gonarezhou is 'Elephant's tusk'.....

Three major rivers - The Save, Runde and Mwenezi - cut their courses through the Park, forming pools and natural oases from which hundreds of species of birds, wildlife and fish gather to feed and drink. As its name implies, Gonarezhou is famous for its elephants, and many of the largest-tusked elephants in the region maybe found within the Park.

Now HeeHoo and I have been in love with Mana Pools for many years but we might, might now be more slightly favoring 'Gonners!!'

We first went to Gonrezhou about six years ago when the park was at an all time low thanks to Zimbabwe's economy. We were the only people in the entire park!! We heard rifle shots! We saw no one at all except for a solitary park ranger, we camped in solitary isolation with only the baboons for company, and we saw very very few animals......

Last week we saw a completely different side of Gonarezhou - the park was really quite a busy little place!!

We camped at Fishans Camp with a lovely group of local and South African friends. We the locals were pretty used to camping but our equipment was nothing like that of our friends from across the border!! EXCEPT FOR THE SHOWER!!

P.J. and Debs from Turk Mine brought with them, a shower stall that could rival a shower in the Savoy Hotel.

A magnificent contraption, comprising a leaf green shower curtain, ample rubber matting to exclude the possibility of mud, and an ingenious cast-iron tea urn run on gas!!

Never was a shower more warmly welcome, with water drawn daily by hand, from the Runde River, and hand poured into a substantial bucket above a shower head by loving husbands!!

Toasty warm water to clean and revive after a hard days camping, and even a macrame mirror plus scented lavender soap to clean one's tootsies!!

These South Africans sure know how to camp, they have every conceivable camping 'mod con', and their hospitality was absolutely amazing.

I must admit we had the easiest and most hands-on tent though, everyone envied our little Eureka number that was erected and dismantled literally in minutes. And the beauty of it was that, if one left off the fly sheet one could lie on one's stretcher and through the gauze, keep and eye on the moon (a brilliant Blue Moon it was too) and of course the glorious milky way and all the stars.

Gill and Bert had a trailer that was a 'Camper's Dream' a mobile home with a kitchen to die for. Jo and Alan's beautiful 4 x 4 was equipped for camping like no other vehicle I have ever seen, and Vince and Linny were the most hospitable and accomplished campers to be found north of the Limpopo!!

We had a daily mighty running battle with the baboons, they were polished thieves and were not afraid of much!

We saw so much game on our forays into the park, loads of eles, giraffe, kudu, impala, waterbuck, nyala, hippo and zebra to name but a few. The birds and water birds were prolific, and of course we fell in love, again with the glorious, majestic, incredible Chilojo Clifts.

There were quite a number of tourists, we met several of them as we became quite well known as 'those people at Fishans who have a satellite phone'. Our phone became widely used by several campers who needed to call Chiredzi to arrange for the purchase of new tyres. The Gonners roads were in fact very good thanks to the input from the Frankfurt Zoological Society, but the casualty rate at Fishans Causeway caused us great mirth.

P.J. was the first to get well stuck in the sand pulling his 100 kg mighty shower trailer....HeeHoo will never admit to it but he also got bogged down temporarily, and then the rest of the trip was spent towing all and sundry through the Runde River Bednwith our trusty cruiser!!

A great place to make lasting friendships apparently, is the dry sandy river bed of a Zimbabwe river!!

thePoint Mindstyle Dynamix
20-23rd August 2015
Bulawayo, Zimbabwe

With Stephen D. Norval

Creator of Power to Emerge Series

'Awaken a new way of Seeing'

thePoint Mindstyle Dynamix is a groundbreaking 4-day adventure of self-inquiry that reveals and explores a viewpoint on Life as seen through the Mind of original intelligence - how it informs our action and is the source of authentic self-expression within all human relating. The authentic self emerges naturally and spontaneously through harnessing the

Power of Present Attention.

Given that the mind is the 'operating system' of awareness, it is of particular significance to see and learn how original intelligence illumines the mind, the intellect and, therefore, your thought, word and deed.
When we gain true perspective, we harness the simple power of attention and stand firmly in the realm of the unimaginable, inspired to create the impossible. We stand rooted in purpose and depth of meaning with the capacity to act with clarity and effectiveness, directing our attention with precise intention. We are enabled to make a contribution to life and the living, personally and professionally, that is both satisfying and fulfilling.

'thePoint is a mindstyle placing you in perfect alignment with your deepest yearning'

Join us in this exploration and embodiment of knowledge & experience.

THE ACADEMY AND PERFORMING ARTS BULAWAYO

THE SPY WHO LOVED ME
Thursday 20 August at 7.00 p.m. in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m.
James Bond is back again in what is Roger Moore's favourite Bond film, and his new mission is to find out how a Royal Navy Polaris submarine holding 16 nuclear warheads has simply disappeared. Bond joins Major Anya Amasova, a KGB agent whose lover he discovers he has killed which complicates matters when he takes on a web-fingered mastermind as well as his henchman Jaws who has a mouthful of metal teeth....

Admission: $3.00 [free to Film members]
Supper available from 6.15 p.m. - must be ordered in advance.

SCHUBERT: FIERRABRAS
Friday 21 August in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m.
Schubert is one of the best-loved of all composers but his operas are very little known. He actually started at least 18 of which nearly half remained unfinished and only one was staged in his lifetime. Fierrabras was the last opera he completed and, although this 'heroic-romantic opera' contains much magnificent music, it was only first heard in full as late as 1988. Staged at the Salzburg Festival last year, a strong cast 'unfolded the poetry, the sweetness and the dramatic force of Schubert's refined and atmospheric sound worlds in highly romantic fashion' [Kleine Zeitung].

Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members]
Dinner available during the interval ($10.00), must be ordered in advance.

JURASSIC PARK
Thursday 27 August at 7.00 p.m. in the Robert Sibson Hall
With Jurassic World one of the hit films of the year, it seems a good idea to go back to the beginning and show all four films of the tetralogy over the coming months! At the beginning of Jurassic Park, huge advancements in scientific technology have enabled John Hammond (Richard Attenborough) to create a theme park full of living dinosaurs to which he has invited four individuals along with his two grandchildren for a preview. But a park employee attempts to steal dinosaur embryos, as a result critical security systems are shut down and the cloned dinosaurs run amok...And, if you're wondering how the film stands up 22 years after its original release...
'Slam-bang thriller delivers the goods with action, suspense, hair-raising chills and landmark special effects' [Maltin's Movie Guide, 2014]

Admission: $3.00 [free to Film members]
Supper available from 6.15 p.m. - must be ordered in advance.

BERNSTEIN CONDUCTS...
Mozart: Symphony No.39 in E flat major, K.543
Schumann: Symphony No.3 in E flat major, Op.97
Milhaud: Le boeuf sur la toit - Ballet, Op.58
Tchaikovsky: Symphony No.4 in F minor, Op.36
In this concert, Bernstein conducts three orchestras - the Vienna Philharmonic, L'Orchestre National de France and the New York Philharmonic.
'The scintillating account of Milhaud's exhilarating Le boeuf sur le toit alone is worth the cost of the DVD - and what a joy Bernstein is to watch, enjoying himself hugely. [Penguin Guide]

Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members]
Dinner available during the interval ($10.00), must be ordered in advance.

29) TIDBITS


Antelope Park response to canned hunting allegations made on ITV's This Morning programme
Antelope Park and its partners, Lion Encounter and ALERT (African Lion and Environmental Research Trust ) are deeply saddened by the death of Cecil the lion. They are against the hunting of lions and support the prevention of such hunting. In this regard Antelope Park and its partners were disquieted by comments made on Thursday 30th July 2015 by Virginia McKenna OBE, founder of the Born Free Foundation, and Garth Hovell, a game guide, who took part in a discussion on ITV's This Morning programme regarding the shooting of Cecil in Zimbabwe. During the broadcast several comments were made regarding Antelope Park in Zimbabwe that are false.

Virginia McKenna stated the following in relation to the captive bred lions and lion walks at Antelope Park:
'...a lot of them, I'm not saying all of them, but a lot of them, apparently, are sold to canned hunting in South Africa. Now, if that isn't something to really shout about, this is an extension of pretending that everything is going to be fine because these animals are going to go back to the wild, not at all. They are bred especially for these walks and then the fate of some is actually to be in canned hunting in South Africa.'

Neither Antelope Park nor its partners, breed lions for lion walks, but rather to take part in the African Lion Rehabilitation & Release into the Wild Programme (should you wish to donate to this programme, click here http://campaign.justgiving.com/charity/africanlion/alert). Further, no lion has ever, or will ever be sold with the intention of that lion being shot in the canned hunting industry in South Africa or elsewhere. The very idea is against the fundamental intention of Antelope Park and its partners.

Allegations that Antelope Park, and by association its partners, are selling lions for canned hunting first arose in February 2008 when the UK's Sunday Times Newspaper featured an article entitled 'African Lion Encounters: A Bloody Con'. The article claimed that 'as many as 59 lion cubs raised at Antelope Park have been sold to big-game-hunting operations to be shot for sport.' in relation to sales of lions made by Antelope Park to South Africa. Antelope Park approached the Press Complaints Commission (PCC), which undertook an independent investigation that included reviewing records provided by Antelope Park, the buyers in South Africa and export permits issued by the Zimbabwean Parks & Wildlife Management Authority. The investigation confirmed that regulations were in place to prevent the hunting of lions and that the prevention of hunting was a primary requirement of the sale. In light of this investigation the newspaper was required to retract the story and issue a public apology in which it stated, 'We accept that the owners of the park never have and never will intentionally sell lions for 'canned' hunting. We regret any impression that Antelope Park co-operated in the supply of animals for hunting.' Please click here for the judgment made by the PCC -
http://www.pcc.org.uk/case/resolved.html article=NTA2Nw

It is an unfortunate reality that lions in breeding facilities in South Africa are almost all destined for the canned hunting industry. Those operators seek to make additional income from the lions before they are shot, allowing people to interact with young cubs and to take them on walks. Additionally, bones from the lion victims are sold to feed the growing demand for lion parts used in various traditional medicines.
