Travelogue with a difference at BotSoc meeting
This unusual talk focuses on Northern India - a most fascinating part of the country
THE Botanical Society of South Africa KZN Coastal Branch presents a talk entitled ‘India, what the travel brochures don’t show you’ on Monday, 14 August from 6pm at Durban Botanic Gardens Visitors Centre, John Zikhali Road (ex-Sydenham), Durban.
This unusual talk focuses on Northern India, a most fascinating part of the country, often frenetic and at times even funny, but also filthy.
With the same quirky humour as in his previous immensely popular talks, Charles Botha shows photos that most tourists would never think of taking.
This is definitely not a standard travelogue, so be prepared for some shocks. Although it deals mainly with ‘non-touristy’ matters, it also touches on the tremendous sights for those who want to travel there or nostalgically remember their trip. Various wildlife, including beautiful birds, and some interesting plants are also featured.
Entrance including refreshments is R50 for members of BotSoc and R65 for non-members; students with cards R35. Proceeds go to the Botanical Education Trust. Pay at the door. No need to book. For enquiries call 031-201-5111 or on 071-869-3693 or email botsoc-kzn@mweb.co.za
