The target for 2011 is 70 000 Santa Shoeboxes, which will
be dispatched to more than 600 children’s homes,
orphanages and other child care institutions across the
country, in time to place a happy smile on many a child’s
face this festive season.
With ‘teach your child the joy of giving’ as the essence of
the project, donors are encouraged to involve their own
children in the process of personally selecting the name
of a specific child, and putting together his or her, age
appropriate Santa Shoebox gift according to the
guidelines provided. These include some practical
necessities, such as toothpaste and toothbrush, face cloth
and soap, as well as sweets, educational supplies, a toy
and an item of clothing.
Enter into the spirit of Christmas early this year and
register on-line at www.santashoebox.co.za
The gift wrapped Santa Shoeboxes need to be dropped
off at central distribution points across the country
between 20 October and 4 November.
Santa Shoebox Project
is a non-profit organization
that collects Christmas gifts
for underprivileged children
throughout South Africa,
by way of a social and
community network of
families, friends, schools and churches.
The Santa Shoebox Project is instrumental in involving
people from all walks of life, especially children together
with their parents, in giving to children from a distinctly
vulnerable social background who may never have
received a Christmas gift before. Many people have a
desire to contribute to their community or do their
‘little bit for charity’, but often don’t know where to
start.
The Santa Shoebox Project takes pride in channeling all
that positive energy into something that is credible,
makes a real difference in a specific child’s life and leaves
the donor feeling really good about him or herself.
September marked the launch of this year’s heart
warming Santa Shoebox Project, which has been
collecting Christmas gifts for thousands of under-
privileged children throughout the country since 2006

The Seychelles
A short flight from South Africa, lie 115 Coral atolls and
granite islands carved and polished by the wind and the
sea, these are the Seychelles, an archipelago of over one
hundred islands scattered in the Indian Ocean just below
the equator between 480km and 1,600 km from the
coast of East Africa.
A tropical paradise of beaches, sun and palm trees, the
Seychelles are a real nature reserve that is home to the
last virgin forests of the Indian Ocean and where
surviving plants, flowers and animals unique to the
world. It is an archipelago of rare beauty, tranquility and
harmony that is famous for its incomparable beaches
and the great diversity which rolls from lush forests
down to the crystal clear warm waters. The Seychelles are
one of the last frontiers and promises adventure and
breathtaking scenery in an unpolluted environment and
untouched by man and are the most ancient mid-oceanic
granite islands in the world.
The Seychelles have, among their treasures, no less ...
than two UNESCO World Heritage sites: the legendary
Vallée de Mai, where the amazing Coco de mer nut grows
wild and legendary Aldabra, the biggest coral atoll in the
world first seen by Arab sailors in the ninth century.
The weather is beautiful all year round and always pleasant
thanks to a constant ventilation with average temp
between 25°C and 30°C. Being outside the cyclone zone
makes the islands a year round destination for sun and
beach lovers.
From November to April the islands are touched by the
wind from the northwest, it’s warmer with rainfall and
the sea is generally calm, from May to October
temperatures are slightly cooler and drier with winds
from the southeast. In Apr - May and Oct - Nov the
weather is warm there is no wind with calm, clear seas.
When to Go:
Deep-sea fishing - from October to April
Surfing and windsurfing - from May to Sept.
Diving - from March to May and from Sept. to Nov.

The Blue Sea Divers Centre - Seychelles(certified FFESSM, CEDIP, PADI AND CMAS)
We are ideally located at the very heart of the action
right on Beau Vallon Beach,on Mahé Island near the
marine reserve, and enjoy easy access to the most
beautiful dive sites of the island.
The fully equipped boats and professional team of dive
masters will help you discover the diversity of the varied
and prolific underwater marine life.
It is possible to dive all year round but the quality of dive
sites varies depending on prevailing winds. The water
temp is 29 ºC and visibility extends beyond 30 metres.
From May to August, visibility is reduced and the water
is colder (25 °C). We suggest a wetsuit of at least 4 mm.
The depth of dives vary from 8 to 20 meters for sites
near the coast and up to 40 meters for open water dives
and wrecks.
The marine flora and fauna of the nearby islands reveal
an abundance of fish on reefs near the coast: several
species of butterfly fish, angelfish, emperor, soldier fish,
squirrel fish, parrot fish and glass fish are just some
species among many. The cliffs also hide many species of
invertebrates among which there are octopus, lobster...
and a plethora of nudibranchs such as Spanish dancers.
Sites where there is always current you will see growing
gorgonian and colorful coral formations while in more
remote sites you will find bigger species such as big
napoléons, giant groupers, reef sharks and rays. Among
the most spectacular species, whale sharks encircle the
islands from June to December, especially in September
and October
From late 2012 the Blue Sea Divers Dive Centre will offer
the chance to cruise the Seychelles on board the
amazing new Galatea with six brand new spacious cabins
on board, it has specifically being designed for diving
cruises and is equipped with all modern comforts.

This is the KTM X-BOW
These mark the entry into the fantastic world called
X-BOW and of course to some degree, it is the attributes
of these vehicles – aggressive design and sporting
potential - that transform the KTM X-BOW R into the
most outstanding super sports car available today.
The ‘Street’ and the ‘Clubsport’ can generate 240 h.p
thanks to the proven 2.0 TFSI Audi engine.
The performance is no less impressive - beginning with
the acceleration right up to the lateral acceleration in the
curves – and of course you can have a whole lot of fun
both on the road and the racetrack with both of these
cars.
For all those who regularly make at trip to the racing
circuit there is a special KTM X-BOW designed
specifically for their requirements and needs:
the ‘Clubsport’. This car perfectly combines the
requirements of a street legal vehicle with those suitable
for the racing circuit, primarily because of the many
features that directly derive from motorsports like the
suspension, which with its adjustable shock absorbers
(including preload adjuster) in pushrod arrangement is
already familiar to the technology from Formula racing
cars, and with adjustable stabilizers and more precisely
adjustable pushrods that offers both the semi-
professional and the passionate hobby driver a range of
options. The steel roll bar, fire extinguisher, side
protection drops, 6-point seat belts emergency stop
switch, racing headrest and dry cell battery round off the
list of special features.
So whether its for Sundays or Track days these are
special vehicles that will keep you smiling !
The KTM X-BOW is available in models ranging
from a street version to a full blown Ready to Race
machine.

Hai time for a “Boho” change !
Hai.bo, a proudly SA brand that will be
taking the hospitality, dining and
lifestyle industry to new heights, by
opening the first outlet soon at 18 Lillian
Ngoyi (Windermere Rd), Durban.
The site was Bean Bag Bohemia (BBB),
however will now be HAI.BO, the hottest
new restaurant / bar /café in Durban.
Post the closure of BBB earlier this year, Durbanites and
regular visitors were starved of a great place to hang out
and get to know what is going on in Durban. A group of
friends and regulars to the old establishment saw this
opportunity to offer Durban something fresh whilst
being relevant and on-trend in terms of a great dining
experience and a destination venue, something that
would work anywhere. Hai.bo, the brand, was born and
will soon be offering its clientele the hottest eatery
where the cool and on-trend set hang-out.
The 1st Hai.bo store will be opening its’ doors in October
2011, with a string a very exciting events and activities
to reignite the Florida Rd strip and create a creative
precinct between Campbell Rd and St. Mary’s Avenue.
The venue is currently being renovated and upgraded to
offer 4 different areas, in which to relax and enjoy great
food, wide selection liquid refreshments, whilst enjoying
good company from 11am – till late (2am). Hai.bo will
cater to a wide mix of visitors, thereby becoming
Durban’s only truly cosmopolitan venue.
The food styling at Hai.bo will be inspired by an
Afro-Asian Fusion, whilst catering to the diverse nature
of the local clientele’s palette.
“Our fine dining area will have a classic menu with flavour
coming from the various local and Asian influence found
in KZN and SA at large stated the Hai.bo Executive chef.
Hai.Bo will be the perfect spot to meet friends, have
business meetings, whilst enjoying a great dining
experience. Hai.bo is bound to also get tongues wagging,
not only from the quirky and unique services that will be
offered, but also from the irreverent décor and design
components that are being installed.
“We look forward to yet another great space where we
will be able to entertain and proudly host our visitors to
Durban. As SA’s warmest place to be, we are excited to
have a place that will showcase our warmth via the
diversity of our people, our cultures” Commented
Tourism Durban Marketing Manager, Dumi Mbatha.
HAIKU. A decision has been made and we'll lunch
at the “renowned” HAIKU. An Asian tapas restaurant
that has an amazingly huge bamboo steamer baskets,
woks and gas burners that sound like the firing up of a
hot air balloon !
The interior is dark with low hanging lights over the
tables and it doesn't matter whether it's day or night
once you've entered, time stands still. Sit at the counter
to be part of the frenzy as the fusion chefs create poetry.
The menu is extensive, as is the wine list with some well
known labels ... now decisions have to be made !
HaikuTel : 021 424 7000 / Shop 58 Burg Street
www.haikurestaurant.com
Then some sui mai, which are little open faced dumplings,
also with a spicy prawn filling. All excellent little bits to
share !
There are a variety of steamed, stir fried dishes, spring
rolls and even Peking duck ! At the top of my list ... the
bbq duck spring rolls served with hoisan sauce !
We loved it and will be back ...
We decide on prawn toasts, some dim sum, of which we
choose har gau. These are little dumplings some filled
with spicy prawn & some with spinach and cream cheese.
Cape to Cuba “A slice of old Havana” is fun,
different, and apparently (I am told) authentically Cuban.
With a touch a “mad” thrown in, and behind the
unassuming façade of trinkets and art is a restaurant that
is far more than a great dining experience. It’s a
restaurant where literally everything is for sale!
Tables are adorned with over sized ornate candle holders
that complete the mismatched chairs and tables and fit
in perfectly with the tropically hued walls that give the
restaurant a splash of everything Cuban.
The combination of food quality and festive atmosphere
The fresh Cuban bread with salsa & mango fruit to start
gets you all reved up and ready to jump into your mains
which would satisfy most tastes.
The beverage list is reasonable, however, finding the
cocktail menu was delightfully sinful ...
Cape to Cuba is a well orchestrated dance considering
the tight space and Cuban confusion… In short, we'll
return and work our way through the rest of the menu.

combined with the sublime view and rattle of the table

GAME RESERVES
Pure, Distilled Africa Returns To Authentic Safari
Singita Game Reserves has launched Singita Explore, a
transformational new travel concept that will take guests
on a private mobile safari to some of Africa’s most
remote and romantic wilderness sites. The new product
has been custom designed to meet global trends, and the
demand from discerning travellers for privacy,
exclusivity and closeness to nature. Singita Explore rolled
out in East Africa earlier this year within the 340 000
acre (142 000ha) Singita Grumeti Reserves, situated
along the Western corridor of Tanzania’s legendary
Serengeti.
A completely exclusive, true ‘mobile’ camp, Singita
Explore is a unique, modern safari experience unlike
any other. Singita Explore puts the adventure back into
‘going on safari’, offering a journey of exploration on an
exclusive-use basis for between 2 and 12 guests only.
It is an ideal component of an East African safari
itinerary within the Singita Grumeti Reserves, including
stays at its three different lodges: Singita Faru Faru,
Singita Sabora Tented Camp and flagship Singita
Sasakwa, the only Relais & Châteaux property in
East Africa.
Touching the earth lightly, everything about the mobile
camp is designed for minimal energy consumption.With
little environmental impact. Guests will return from
game drives to en-suite hideaways where canvas walls
frame contemporary details infused with the durable
textures of Africa. Designed by Cécile & Boyd’s around
a theme that is modern, robust and stylish, with
wholesome furnishings that are real, utilitarian and
comfortable - in steel, leather, timber, rubber and
natural fabrics, Singita Explore removes the clutter of
everyday life with a safari that is both luxurious and
uncomplicated.
Singita’s innovative signature style and dedication to
conservation embodies the design and purpose of
Singita Explore. Luke Bailes, CEO of Singita Game
Reserves says privacy and exclusivity too are key
signatures of the Singita Explore concept. ‘With Singita
Explore we see the return of raw authenticity to days
spent in the bush, and nights under canvas in the
wilderness. Luxury is still there, but we’re doing it
differently - comfortable and detailed, with the excess
taken out, and yet, retaining the element of luxury to
offer a very beautiful safari adventure experience.
Singita Explore is back to basics, pure distilled Africa
without modern-day distractions to guarantee closeness
to wildlife and untouched landscapes.’
Unlike other camps, which are seasonal and semi-
permanent, Singita Explore will be disassembled and
moved to different locations in accordance to nature, its
rainfall patterns, vegetation, and game movements that
include the annual wildebeest migration - one of the
greatest wildlife spectacles on earth. The mobile safari
camp will be fully staffed with a private guide and game
viewing vehicle, chef and a camp host, with each
itinerary individually tailored according to guests’
personal interests, and preferred safari activities.
Within Singita Grumeti Reserves, Singita Explore will
also offer equestrian mobile tented safaris, providing an
opportunity for horse lovers to spend their days riding
on the open plains of the Serengeti, and the evenings
gathered around the campfire, sharing stories and
experiences. Equestrian group departures have been set
for specific dates to accommodate up to eight riders from
different parts of the world, brought together by their
love for riding and nature.
Elsewhere, the new Singita Explore brand may in future
extend into some of the other pristine wilderness
reserves where Singita holds exclusive concessions

The Volvo V60 makes its entry onto the car market with its sights firmly set on giving the all-new S60
sedan model a tough match over the title of "The Most Dynamic Volvo Model Ever".
A Coupe rather than estate car, from the design viewpoint the focus was on making the car as close to a
coupe as possible, while retaining that handy extra space at the rear. The sports wagon does not aim to
compete with the traditional estate car. The pronounced wedge shape and the slim coupe-like roof line
of the new V60 are accompanied by the shoulder profile along the car's sides, creating a gentle yet
powerful double wave from the headlamps at the front to the tail lamps at the rear. The dip in the middle
of the double wave visually pushes the car down. This enhances the stance and makes the car look sleeker
and lower. The sculpted bonnet and the short overhangs front and rear also emphasise the sports car feel.
Pricing:
From R317.700 ( T3 Manual ) to R474.700 ( T6 Geartronic )
R-Design with extra spice
The all-new Volvo V60 R-Design comes with a
range of specially developed design details both
outside and in. On the inside, the driver and front
passenger sit in sports seats in which the backrest
from the V60 is matched by an all-new seat
cushion with even closer side support than before.
Volvo Cars' chassis experts have taken the next
step on the road to a more and more exciting
driving experience. In the R-Design chassis they
have sharpened the steering, the agility and the
solid overall impression still further compared
with the dynamic chassis in the all-new V60.
Exciting styling pack
A styling pack gives the V60 buyer the opportunity
to boost the sporty attitude still further. Available
in the accessories range, the styling pack includes
skid plates front and rear, a front decor trim, side
scuff plates, special exhaust tailpipes and unique
18-inch wheels. The styling pack gives the car the
robust look inspired by the ruggedness of the XC60.
Exclusive quality inside
Volvo's designers obtained their inspiration from
the racing track as they pursued the sportiness
inside the all-new S60. The graphic character of the
racing track is clearly apparent in the instrument
panel and in the doors. Every detail looks like it's
in motion. The instruments and centre stack are
angled towards the driver to create a sensation of
focus and control. The new dynamic three-spoke
steering wheel and new sports seats with extra side
supports are standard. The rationality, simplicity,
clarity and functionality of Scandinavian design are
all prominent in the new V60
Every detail was refined during the development
process, the chassis team carved out a holistic
solution featuring changes and refinements for
virtually every single detail that influences a car's
driving properties. This includes improved steering,
stiffer springs and bushes as well as more damping
than in any previous Volvo

All pieces are individually handcrafted by Robert and Karen using the finest imported
cutlery steels, specially selected indigous hard woods and a range of exotic materials.
Robert and Karen take great pride in not only creating these masterpieces, they also tailor
design and handcraft the leather work, presentation boxes, display stands and many other
unique and artful forms of display.
The standard and tradition of "Bauchop Custom Made Knives and Swords" go from strength
to strength and will continue through the generations of this knifemaking family.
Karen is one of the few female knifemakers in the world, her lean working hands somewhat
complement her natural femininity. She is enthusiastic about her craft, and acknowledges
that she has had the privilege of learning from the best chraftsmen. Utility knives and
miniatures are her main points of interest.

Always hot with a breeze, This is Curacao.
Once the Caribbeans slave post, Curacao is now a
bustling and colourful little island thats always
“Hopi Bon” ( happy ).
There is a strong Dutch influence and dont be surprised
if you are invited to a braai, as many South Africans now
call this island home.
This is not your typical island, it’s more devil thorns than
palms and the landscape is hard, rugged and it hosts a
piece of Botswana’s charm ! Maybe a jewel maybe a stone
but definitely a touch of mad to the eye ... “Ostriches”
how strange, in the Caribbean ?
From its warm crystal clear waters and scuba diving to
riding dirt bikes and Moet bubbles on the beach, Curacao
certainly is a special place.
Reflexology is an ancient art of holistic healing that
deals with the principle of ‘the zone theory”.
The Zone theory is - there are 10 zones in which all the
structures in the body are mirrored in the reflexes of the
feet, hands and ears. The reflexes of the feet, hands and
ears are stimulated using a “caterpillar walk” with
thumbs and fingers.
It’s a non invasive therapy which helps to bring about
homeostasis within the 9 body systems, correcting
imbalances, cleansing, revitalizing and facilitating
normal body functions.
The Benefits of Reflexology include : Reduced stress and
tension, changes in body physiology, stimulates defense
mechanism and healing potential Induces relaxation of
body and mind. It Gives you a feeling of well being and
restores homeostasis.
The first visit is generally a 1 hour treatment and will
include foot assessment and various relaxations and
treatment, including creaming and oiling meridians. You
will leave with a feeling of relaxation or higher energy.
Drink water after treatment to help the detoxifying.
