    Noraly, I've dived that cave a few times. Nice to see it's still in pretty good condition after 40+ years!! It used to have huge koi in there - the gold fish in that blue water was so beautiful. Seems they've gone now.....:-(
    I was with a team that attempted to find the bottom many years before 2013. We found a sloping shale downgrade at just over 300' but never found how deep it went. There are vertical tunnels at the back of the pool that, in those days, had about 3-4 metres of bat guano floating on the limited top. I entered one at just under 100' and came up to see what was there - a very eerie experience to see it getting darker the closer you got to the surface. The BSAC (British Sub-Aqua Club) also trained Grade One divers in hypoxia recognition in there. It's a very spiritual experience diving in there. Good memories of fun days on a grey, cold, rainy day in Vancouver B.C. Thank you!

This channel has really been a blessing to me. It provides a nostalgic experience with every episode. Thank you Noraly for all the love and effort you give to provide this content. I especially like the rider's view from your cameras, and your narration. You go places I never will have a chance to see, and your attitude of fearless adventure is truly inspiring. Thank you so much.

    When I was in Bulawayo, it was my first time hearing the Ndebele language. I mostly was in Harare where Shona and English are the primary languages. I was just going through a box of old photos (I just moved) and found my old Shona phrase book by Patrick James Matimba. Let me know if I can supply you with some useful phrases. 😉

      @@prudysith Ndinoda kuona chiremba -I want to see a doctor. Zvaita sei? - What is the matter? My favorites are the ones that appear to be one word in Shona like; Zvakazokunakira - It fits like a glove or Kwavakuchena -It is clearing up.
      Honestly the only ones I remember and can recall years later is Mangwanani - Good morning, Manheru - good evening and Akadhakwa - He is drunk. That last one because it appears as one word and was just a non sequitur that cracked me up and just stuck in my head for decades now. I guess I also had no idea when I would have need of that phrase too. 😅

    I traveled with a cross-border business lady on my way from Dar Es Salam, Tanzania to Harare, and she kept luring me to include Chinhoyi caves on my itinerary, she would not stop raving about it :D . Now I understand what she meant, it is amazing! I was just happy to go and check out the wonderful ancient city of Great Zimbabwe near Masvingo, but definitely next time I'm in Zimbabwe I will check out the Chinhoyi caves. Enjoy yourself :)

    I believe the color is from the ammonia acid in the water, don't drink the water, it's poisonous. Pretty color. The bats give off heat from their bodies and that's why it's warm in the cave. COOL Thanks again, be safe, you've had grace with you so far.

That's not everyday ... passing some motorbikes... Another great red road toll free for bikes... that's great. Off to the winding path to the caves after the standard high pitch 'bye'.. again great sounds... amazing caves with the crazy blue water. White stuff, bat calling cards. Good point, 'so anazing that it's unnatural'. Goodbye to the hot caves.... Rest well, be careful, stay safe...
