ZANZIBAR QUEEN of SHEBA LEGEND!!

Zanzibar Queen of Sheba Legend-

Once upon a time......

The Sea said to the Queen of Sheba while at high seas, "promise you return again"

She threw her perl necklace into the Sea and the Sea said "that's not enough"

She then threw two treasure chests into the Sea which sprang open and from these treasures the Magic Islands ofZanzibar were formed...

Unique Tanzania

ZANZIBAR the FINEST PLACE in AFRICA!!

Zanzibar-

This is the finest place I have known in all of Africa to rest before my final journey.

An illusive place where nothing is as it seems.

I am mesmerized......

QUEEN!! - FREDDY MERCURY is ZANZIBARIAN!!

Queen are an English rock band formed in 1970 in London by guitarist Brian May, singer Freddie Mercury (born 9/5/1946 in Zanzibar, Tanzania) and drummer Roger Taylor, with bassist John Deacon joining the following year. Queen rose to prominence during the 1970s and are one of Britain's most successful bands of the past three decades.

Few bands embodied the pure excess of the '70s like Queen. Embracing the exaggerated pomp of prog rock and heavy metal, as well as vaudevillian music hall, the British quartet delved deeply into camp and bombast, creating a huge, mock-operatic sound with layered guitars and overdubbed vocals. Queen's music was a bizarre yet highly accessible fusion of the macho and the fey.

Queen composed music that drew inspiration from many different genres of music, often with a tongue-in-cheek attitude. Among the genres they have been associated with are: arena rock, dance/disco, glam rock, hard rock, heavy metal, pop rock, progressive rock and psychedelic rock. Queen also wrote songs that were inspired by genres that are not or barely associated with rock, such as country, ragtime, opera, gospel, vaudeville and folk. They also experimented with rock-genres such as punk rock and speed metal, amongst others.

The loss of Freddie Mercury

By the late '80s, Mercury was diagnosed with AIDS, but decided to keep his condition under wraps as he focused on recording further albums with Queen as well as issuing sporadic solo singles and an opera-meets-pop album with Montserrat Caballé entitled Barcelona. But by 1991, Mercury's battle with AIDS had taken a turn for the worse, and on November 24, 1991 (just one day after deciding to go public with his ailment), Mercury died at his home in London.

Bohemian Rhapsody Video

A Night at the Opera (1975) featured the hit single "Bohemian Rhapsody", which was number one in the United Kingdom for nine weeks, and is Britain's third-best-selling single of all time; it also reached number nine in the United States (a 1992 re-release reached number two).

Bohemian Rhapsody has been voted, several times, the greatest song of all time!!

Zanzibar's most Famous Son- Freddy Mercury!!

Bohemian Rhapsody Lyrics

Released 31st October, 1975

Is this the real life ?

Is this just fantasy ?

Caught in a landslide

No escape from reality

Open your eyes

Look up to the skies and see

I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy

Because I'm easy come, easy go

A little high, little low

Anyway the wind blows, doesn't really matter to me, to me

Mama, just killed a man

Put a gun against his head

Pulled my trigger, now he's dead

Mama, life had just begun

But now I've gone and thrown it all away

Mama, ooo

Didn't mean to make you cry

If I'm not back again this time tomorrow

Carry on, carry on, as if nothing really matters

Too late, my time has come

Sends shivers down my spine

Body's aching all the time

Goodbye everybody - I've got to go

Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth

Mama, ooo - (anyway the wind blows)

I don't want to die

I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all

I see a little silhouetto of a man

Scaramouch, scaramouch will you do the fandango

Thunderbolt and lightning - very very frightening me

Gallileo, Gallileo,

Gallileo, Gallileo,

Gallileo Figaro - magnifico

But I'm just a poor boy and nobody loves me

He's just a poor boy from a poor family

Spare him his life from this monstrosity

Easy come easy go - will you let me go

Bismillah! No - we will not let you go - let him go

Bismillah! We will not let you go - let him go

Bismillah! We will not let you go - let me go

Will not let you go - let me go (never)

Never let you go - let me go

Never let me go - ooo

No, no, no, no, no, no, no -

Oh mama mia, mama mia, mama mia let me go

Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me

For me

For me

So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye

So you think you can love me and leave me to die

Oh baby - can't do this to me baby

Just gotta get out - just gotta get right outta here

Ooh yeah, ooh yeah

Nothing really matters

Anyone can see

Nothing really matters - nothing really matters to me

Anyway the wind blows...

ZANZIBAR'S ISLAND VOTED / INCLUDED IN WORLDS TOP 30 ISLAND BEACHES

Zanzibar's Island East Coast

Voted and included in the Top 30 Island Beaches in the world by the prestigious Conde' Nast Traveler in their article "20 years...30 beaches"!!

Zanzibar's East Coast was named as one of the top island beaches in nthe world standing shoulder to shoulder with the likes of Petit St Vincent in the St Vincent and the Grenadines, Plaza de las Salinas in Ibiza, Shipwreck Beach in Zakynthos to name a few.

Zanzibar's East Coast was noted for its "safe swimming, seldom crowded, hotel, cafes, bars and natural shade."

The article says "This 12 mile beach on the southeast coast is populated mostly by locals-fisherman wading to their boats, brightly dressed women husking coconuts or gathering seaweed, kids with dreams knocking around a deflated football."

Noted as the WOW FACTOR "Zanzibar is one of the most exotic of African islands, and the east coast is its wide and blinding white beach"

"We have always known how magnificent the east coast is- but we are delighted that the rest of the world is recognizing its beauty.

We hope that this prestigious selection will put Zanzibar firmly in its place as one of the most beautiful islands of the world - with the peaceful and untouched South Eastern Coast of the island getting the acknowledgement it deserves."

Tanzania Beaches and Islands are Irresistable!!

TANZANIA No. 1 in UNIQUENESS!

Tanzania is the only country in the world, which has allocated more then 25% of its total area to Wildlife National Parks and protected areas. Blessed with spectacular scenery, prolific wildlife and a superb coastline, Tanzania has long attracted seekers of an exotic holiday, from across the globe.

Its uniqueness, rich history, cultural heritage, idyllic beaches and wildlife safaris complemented by warm hospitality of the charming people, make for a most memorable experience.

There are 14 National Parks, 33 Game Reserves, 44 Game controlled areas, a conservation area and 2 marine parks.

Tanzania wildlife resources are considered among the finest in the world and they include the greatest game park in the world, the Serengeti National Park (Plains), home to the most storied annual wildlife migration anywhere, the world famous giant, unfenced zoo, the spectacular Ngorongoro Crater, the biggest volcano calderas in Africa, Lake Manyara, and Africa's highest mountain, Mt Kilimanjaro, an amateur climber's delight, in the north, Mikumi, Ruaha National Parks and the world's largest (and best) game reserve, the Selous Game Reserve in the South.

Tanzania has the best places for fishing and water sports in Africa, perhaps the world: hundreds of miles of Indian Ocean coastline and all of Africa's great Lakes, Victoria, Tanganyika, and Nyasa, (no other country touches more then one).

Other attractions include the splendid sandy beaches, North and South of Dar es Salaam, Africa's most exotic and compelling island, the legendary Spice isle of Zanzibar, and excellent deep-sea fishing at Mafia Island and Pemba Island.

Within the Indian Ocean Isles are relics of ancient settlements and historical monuments.

For the visiting tourist, Tanzania also offers a unique culture and crafts notably the Maasai culture and art, Makonde sculptures and carving done in ebony.

Further more, Tanzanians are hospitable people, the most friendliest people on the planet.

Tanzania is probably the best country in the world:-))

TANZANIA ZANZIBAR SAFARI BLUE EXPERIENCE,

ZANZIBAR SAFARI BLUE EXPERIENCE,

a SWAHILI Dhow Cruise tailor -made to your taste and style. This has to be experienced, did it ourselves last Saturday with the kids and friends, in a way an Ocean / Sea Side Bonanza of a day out in a fleet of traditional dhows, "Anthony and Cleopatra style", searching for dolphins, followed by sandbank sunbathing, snorkeling the reefs, discovering new worlds underwater, fresh coconuts milk and meat, pine apples, sugary nut sweets, water melon etc., followed by more dolphin searching or a walk through the ocean, (sand bank connects to Kwale Island during low tide), where a seafood and chicken barbecue awaits, rice, coconut sauce or another Swahili sauce, eat as much lobster as you like:0) As dessert its exotic fruits one after the other explained and prepared in front of your eyes, "ubuyu" (baobab fruit 0, mangoes large and small ones, bananas, red ones, green ones, yellow ones, jack fruit, papaya, grape fruit, avocado, passion fruit, wild custard apple, star berry, more water melon, ends with Coffee and Amarula, bringing this feast to an end. This is followed by a visit to great big Baobab Tree that was blown down by the wind and from its root sticking in the air a new tree/branch has started, its over 500 years old, you then board your dhows once again and cruise into a neighboring lagoon and mangrove forest for another last chance dip, before getting into position and racing back all by sail this time to the landing point next to Fumba Lodge on the south western coast, Menai Bay. Its the best excursion on the island. http://www.zanzibarmagic.com/english2nd/safari%20blue%20zanzibar%20fumba.htm
