00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 1: at ardn Ardine Arderne Gardens about two years ago. Is

17
00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:57,240

00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 1: Here exactly right? And I went for a delightful walk

22
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 1: with the mother of those very children in the week

23
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,680
Speaker 1: to the alf and alfin Trail. Wendy, you say that

24
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 1: the whole family. This is an event for the whole family.

25
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 1: So what sort of age range are we looking at.

26
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 3: Yes, absolutely, it's actually filled with lots of hands on activities, dancing, music,

27
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 3: so any age really. There's lots of specimens to see

28
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 3: and people to interact with. And we're right in the

29
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 3: Sea and Us exhibit on the ground floor and next

30
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 3: to the Discovery Room, so there's places to see in

31
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 3: the discovery room, specimens, and then they can do activities

32
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 3: out in the main area of the exhibit.

33
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,200
Speaker 1: So unlike a lot of things that I spend doing

34
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 1: with my children where I have to say don't touch this,

35
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 1: don't touch this, don't touch this, I'm allowed. They're allowed

36
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 1: to touch things.

37
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 3: Right, absolutely, absolutely. And we also have a new activity

38
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 3: called the Trading Post, and the kids can earn tokens

39
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 3: and trade for minerals and rocks and specimens. So that

40
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 3: should be a lot of fun.

41
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,920

42

69
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 1: I quite rightly thought I had recalled, a friend of

70
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,240
Speaker 1: ours hosted had a party for her kids a couple

71
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: of years ago, and Wendy and her crew came down

72
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 1: and it was remarkable. It was just the most brilliant

73
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 1: idea for a kid's party. And I don't know if

74
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 1: they sort of do that all the time, but in

75
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 1: terms of the information and kids being able, it was

76
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:50,240

104
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 1: a busy day for you. Tracy.

105
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,240

00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 2: it's good to good to.

107
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 4: Speak to you.

108
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 1: What talk to us a little bit about the theme.

109
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,839
Speaker 1: First of all, follow your heart. How are people interpreting

110
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 1: that or how would you like people to interpret that?

111
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 4: Well, well, Elegancy, you know, on the on the on.

112
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 2: The graphic, he said, we emphasize the art in heart.

113
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,440
Speaker 2: So it's the art of the heart, you know. And

114
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,360
Speaker 2: and I think as as creators what the ones need

115
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:51,600
Speaker 2: to really celebrate. It's not just the doing of what

116
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,840
Speaker 2: we do with the heart behind it, you know, the

117
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 2: heart of our art and and and I think it's

118
00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 2: set set what drives as as creators and and what

119
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:04,280
Speaker 2: they want to share with Cape Town. And in that,

120
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 2: we also want to celebrate those who have followed their

121
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,360
Speaker 2: hearts to become and and we we've we've given them

122
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 2: out our champions this year and selected various Captonians that

123
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:17,479
Speaker 2: we felt have really followed their heart art and made

124
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:21,040
Speaker 2: an impact in society through doing that. And I think

125
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,800
Speaker 2: it's just been a beautiful journey as we've heard people stories,

126
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 2: heard what they've gone through in the in the path

127
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,479
Speaker 2: of following their heart, and and then the message that

128
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 2: they wanted to share with Cape Town through the Paraders year.

129
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,720
Speaker 1: You mentioned a number of champions, including a few sort

130
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 1: of very well known champions like Course and KFMS. Did

131
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 1: you already do?

132
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 3: What?

133
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,479
Speaker 1: What is their role as champions? What does what does

134
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 1: that mean?

135
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:44,359
Speaker 4: Really?

136
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,239
Speaker 2: So we've journeyed with them, as I said, over over

137
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,000
Speaker 2: a few months. You know, we've asked them to share

138
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:54,480
Speaker 2: their stories with us. You know, how they've how they've

139
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,840
Speaker 2: developed challenges, they've gone through, the highs they've gone through,

140
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 2: and through that we've developed various sub themes for our

141
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 2: parade and and then given birth to you know, the

142
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 2: sister so well with Zelani when telling her story as

143
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 2: a young girl growing up in the Eastern Cape and

144
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 2: well she wanted to do was sing and through her music,

145
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 2: you know, bring joy and bring hope to people. And

146
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 2: so the part that she is championing was Uo which

147
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 2: means joy and and and through that, you know we've

148
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:25,000
Speaker 2: with the mother nature is the it's the float that

149
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 2: she's going to be on, showcasing this beautiful array of

150
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 2: flowers and the African spirit and the joy that it brings.

151
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 2: And so so they really gave birth to the to

152
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 2: the themes that we're going to be showcasing down the

153
00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 2: parade and Antheline and Natasha for a matter who who

154
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 2: shared their journey and how music was a driving force

155
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 2: in their life and that's in the platform of their success.

156
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 2: And so their part is called trap a trap, and

157
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 2: he's showing the staircase, but the staircase is also reveriscent

158
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 2: of a piano that they walked up to the top.

159
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 2: So it's been wonderful that how we's been able to

160
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 2: take the waste the journeys, interpret it into our performances

161
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:04,080
Speaker 2: and our floats.

162
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 1: And if people want to come down, just give us

163
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 1: an idea of the route and also the best sort

164
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 1: of viewing places where people should come to, et cetera,

165
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 1: et cetera.

166
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, so the root starts at the Helen in Swusman

167
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 2: Circle end of the green Point main road and we

168
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 2: work our way down right to the bottom end to

169
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 2: Shaubpinie Seet. So obviously right along the route wherever you

170
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 2: can find this on both sides of the road, we've

171
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 2: got you know, the fence line where you can come

172
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,560
Speaker 2: and you can find a good spot. And obviously we

173
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 2: do have our viewing decks where you can purchase tickets

174
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:41,960
Speaker 2: if you so choose too. We've got hud stands and

175
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,880
Speaker 2: VIP decks are not sure if there are any tickets

176
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 2: available on those platforms, but to welcome to the check

177
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 2: Cricket or our kapes Un Carnival website. But anywhere along

178
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 2: the route, you know, it's a great place to view,

179
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 2: as long as you can get as close to the

180
00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 2: front as you can get the early so that you

181
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:01,319
Speaker 2: can get a good spot.

182
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 1: I can't wait. I think this might be the first

183
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 1: year of that. My kids are now sort of old

184
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:10,679
Speaker 1: enough that I can coral them into safely coming to

185
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,000
Speaker 1: see because it really is such a spectacle. Tracy, it's

186
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 1: a busy day for you. I'm going to let you go.

187
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 1: Thank you very much, indeed to you and the rest

188
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,200
Speaker 1: of the Cape Town Carnival team for all your hard work.

189
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:21,760
Speaker 1: I know that it is a year round gig for you.

190
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,439
Speaker 1: It's not just, of course, the one weekend of the

191
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 1: one night Tracy Carter, performance director at Cape Town Carnival.

192
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:32,120

193
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,160

194
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:36,760
Speaker 1: of things, the weather is going to hold out, so

195
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 1: that's a real local event for you to go and enjoy.

196
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 1: And then finally, if you're up and about enjoying your coffee,

197
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,880

205
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 4: Hello, good morning. How are you, Vicky, not.

206
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 2: Vicky j J.

207
00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 1: Vicky's in the mountain somewhere doing something delightful, finding our

208
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 1: own piece and meditation well deserved. Tell us about tell

209
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 1: us about this Silent Beach Walk meditation.

210
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:30,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, so we we we host one of these maybe

211
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 4: about four times a year, and in between those I

212
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:36,240
Speaker 4: get so many requests to do them. When is the

213
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 4: next one? And when is the next one? And it's

214
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 4: such a simple practice, but so many people have a

215
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 4: profound experience. We we literally walk on the beach, preferably barefoot,

216
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:51,559
Speaker 4: but that's optional. We walk super slow and and we

217
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:55,320
Speaker 4: we we you know, we are in silence for the walk.

218
00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 4: It's a very short walk, but we walk slowly, so

219
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 4: anybody can do the walk, regardless of fitness levels or age.

220
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:07,079
Speaker 4: And really the challenge for a lot of people is

221
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:12,080
Speaker 4: that being in silence and slowing down. But it's something

222
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 4: that we all need, even if you don't know it. So, yeah,

223
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,320
Speaker 4: so we gather at even on the bay on the grass,

224
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:21,559
Speaker 4: I do a beefing at quarter to nine, and then

225
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 4: by nine we down on the sand and we walk

226
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 4: along the beach in silence in a format just mainly

227
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 4: just because we want to make sure that we keep

228
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 4: nice and slow, So we walk one behind each other,

229
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 4: keep our gaze down at the sand on the way

230
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 4: out so that we stay nice and focused in present. Yeah,

231
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 4: and then we do a bit of mindful movement and

232
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 4: some breathing practices at the turnaround point and then we

233
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,080
Speaker 4: and we'll back nice and slow as well.

234
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 1: It sounds divine. Actually, you're also asking for a donation

235
00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 1: of fifty round but say more or less or even

236
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 1: nothing will be fine. Can people just bring cash through or.

237
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've got I mean it's I mean, obviously cash

238
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 4: is sometimes a struggle, or so I've got a snapskin option.

239
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:15,080
Speaker 4: There's an EFT option, but I really really encourage people

240
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 4: to join even if no donation is possible. My passion

241
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 4: is really about well being and mental health, and so

242
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 4: this is really what this is about. It's giving people

243
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 4: opportunity to slow down and be outdoors and you know,

244
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 4: we need a silence is something that we don't often get.

245
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 4: Our worlds are very busy and noisy, and and so

246
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 4: just to take that moment to be with yourself in

247
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 4: the outdoors, in nature, be with whatever's with you, you know,

248
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:49,080
Speaker 4: whatever you're carrying and holding, to be quietly with that

249
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:53,320
Speaker 4: is a blessing. So yeah, lovely, so welcome.

250
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 1: Have a wonderful weekend and a fantastic silent beach walk

251
