Lake Manyara National Park - Tanzania

Lake Manyara National Park is one of Tanzania's smallest parks and is often skipped on many safari itineraries, it is strongly recommended you make the detour to visit it.

The dramatic western escarpment of the Rift Valley forms the park's western border. To the east is the alkaline Lake Manyara which covers one-third of the park. Manyara ranges from savannah to marshes to evergreen forest and it supports one of the highest biomass densities of the large mammals in the world. Elephants, hippos, zebras, giraffes, buffaloes and wildebeest are often spotted. Lake Manyara is also home to the famous population of tree-climbing lions.

On the Home Front, 1939-45 - Rufford Abbey Country Park, Nottinghamshire

Rufford Abbey was used as a training ground by troops and armoured military units in World War II, so a fitting (as well as very attractive) venue for this popular nostalgic weekend event which brings the sights, sounds, emotions and excitement of those wartime years back to life. There was a great line-up of performers - visitors could meet ‘Winston Churchill’, ‘General Montgomery’, and many Allied army, navy, air force and other wartime personnel, as well as civilians and children, all in period clothing or uniform.
