Halloween can be a scary experience for many people with eerie tales of ghosts, demons and goblins.

Bats have long been associated with Halloween. How about an unforgettable experience viewing literally millions of bats? Well you can in the Kasanka National Park of Zambia, Africa.

Each year between October and December, around eight million fruit bats fill the skies of Zambia as arrive from the Congo to feed on the wild musuku fruits in Kasanka National Park.

Africa has long been a desired destination for all the incredible array of wildlife. Africa offers so much, such as the great migration in the Serengeti, tracking mountain gorillas in Parc National des Volcans in Rwanda, gliding silently along the Zambezi River viewing wildlife from a canoe, learning desert survival skills from a bushman in the Kalahari in Botswana or sipping champagne while watching the sun descend into the Atlantic from a private balcony in Cape Town.

This amazing annual bat spectacle event has been called the world’s largest mammal migration. The fruit bats arrive every year in massive numbers looking to settle in the Zambian fruit trees and cover the tree trunks like a thick blanket.

But once the sun sets, it’s time to take flight. The fruit bats fill the skies to go forage.

African Travel, Inc. has been in business since 1976 and has sent over 100,000 adventurers and safari guests on their dream Africa experience. The truly are safari specialists.

So it doesn’t matter if you want to experience bats in Zambia, wine tasting in Cape Town, hot air ballooning in Namibia, snorkeling in Mozambique, or a special family safari to amazing Kenya where you can feed the giraffes, African Travel, Inc. will help you create your ultimate dream vacation.

      “Da Vinci – The Genius” Exhibit Extends Popular Las Vegas Engagement


      Mona Lisa

      We reported back in June about the exciting “Da Vinci – The Genius”” exhibit being held at the luxurious Venetian Resort  in Las Vegas.  The art exhibit has been so popular that coordinators have decided to extend the Las Vegas engagement until January of 2013.

      From its world debut of a new Leonardo da Vinci work to revealing the “Secrets of Mona Lisa,” the hit exhibition has infused new life into Vegas’ emerging arts scene.

      <h3>Since the art exhibit’s opening this summer, Da Vinci – The Genius has brought the incredibly creative mind of Leonardo Da Vinci to life with a deep dive of his work as an inventor, sculptor, artist, musician, anatomist, engineer and architect.</h3>

      There are more than 200 unique pieces of art on display for patrons to enjoy that represent the full scope of Leonardo da Vinci’s remarkable genius. Featured are numerous interactive examinations of his iconic art and studies in flight, music, military engineering, aquatics, anatomy, time and more.

      Just a small sample of the Da Vinci – The Genius art pieces to see include:

      · An extraordinary, brand new da Vinci discovery: the mold and original bronze cast of the only known Leonardo da Vinci sculpture surviving today, “Horse and Rider.” Created more than 500 years ago from a block of solid beeswax, “Horse and Rider” was authenticated by the foremost authority on the life and works of da Vinci, Dr. Carlo Pedretti.

      · The illustrious Secrets of Mona Lisa exhibit, featuring the findings of French scientific engineer and examiner of fine art, Pascal Cotte. Granted unprecedented access, Cotte took “Mona Lisa” out of its frame at The Louvre to conduct an in-depth analysis of history’s most elusive work of art. Cotte’s study revealed dozens of secrets, and is showcased by 40 super-magnified, high-resolution sectional images exploring every aspect of the work.

      · More than 75 life-size machine inventions crafted by Italian Artisans, many using techniques and materials from the Renaissance period. Scouring over 6,000 pages from da Vinci’s personal codices (notebooks), the Artisans deciphered hidden clues, intentional mistakes and mirror-image writing that da Vinci employed to keep his works top secret.

      · An elaborate gift shop full of unique da Vinci souvenirs and memorabilia, such as mini replicas of his inventions, art kits and logoed merchandise. Serious art collectors can also purchase a limited edition of “Horse and Rider” in one of four different finishes: Leonardo Classic, Classic Bronze, Verde and Silver. A $1 million dollar donation from the sales of “Horse and Rider” will go to The Salvation Army Rehabilitation Program of Southern Nevada.

      · Interactive touch-screen tablets which offer in-depth explanations about da Vinci’s theories and ideas while connecting them to modern inventions.

      · Explorations of da Vinci’s most famous artwork, including three dimensional renderings and analyses of “The Last Supper,” the “Vitruvian Man and the “Sforza Horse.” Guests can gain new perspectives on incredible reproductions of “Virgin of the Rocks,” “The Annunciation,” the controversial new Leonardo discovery “Bella Principessa,” da Vinci’s anatomical sketches, and preparatory drawings of the “Anghiari Battle.”

      Da Vinci – The Genius is open daily to the public between the hours of 10 a.m. and 8 p.m. You can purchase tickets at the Imagine Exhibitions Gallery box office or at www.venetian.com
