Chasing Smiles In Zimbabwe Ep. 2

[@oonaghbolton758]

Hello Bruce , I am a 64 yo women who grew up in Harare but left in 1981. I live in beautiful Canada but my heart will always belong in Zim. Thankyou for your videos, they mean a lot.

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

Thank you for watching and taking the time to write to me. Really appreciate that and I hope to continue entertaining. All the best

[@sustainableyorkshire9465]

Zimbabwe will always be home! Absolute beauty and we will be exposing and moving back 💜

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

I would love to move back one day too

[@raymondchikuku1809]

Oh. I am trying to watch as many ads as I possibly can on this channel and I encourage everyone to watch at least 3 ads. Bruce is doing great for our country Zim and for Africa. He needs all the help we can give him.

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

Thank you so much Raymond. Having subscribers, people watching the episodes and adverts definitely helps. Thank you for watching and supporting the channel.

[@raymondchikuku1809]

Those kids at the borehole, that clapping of hands gesture they gave you is a sign of heartfelt gratitude in the Shona culture.

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

Yes isn’t it wonderful. It always amazes me how a little soccer ball and pump can bring so much happiness. Thank you again for your support

[@Tinah1450]

That lady playing netball with her boys could have easily saved Zimbabwe at the world cup in Cape Town😂😂😂. Thanks so much Bruce

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

😂😂 thank you for watching Tinashe

[@JohnLinwoodUK]

Thanks again Bruce for more spectacular views of Zimbabwe. I loved the Eastern Highlands when we used to visit as kids. It was there for the first time that I saw ice on the windscreen of the car in the morning. Beautiful country and wonderful people.

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

What a great memory. Thank you for watching John

[@mandystormty]

Just amazing. Born in Bulawayo left 1969. Never went to the Highlands which I had. Been back to Bulawayo and Vic Falls and hwange 2017. Amazing. Your videos are wonderful. Thank you for showing people what an amazing country it is and the fabulous people.

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

Thank you Mandy. One of the reasons I started and carried on trying to make KZbin videos was to show the side that media does not show. There is so much more than the negative media exposure and it is a truly amazing country and people. Thank you for watching and commenting.

[@NdauTribe13]

I discovered this channel last month and I love it Zim has tremendously beautiful landscapes but my Province Manicaland is out of this world with its Breathtaking scenarios I call it the world's best kept secret 😆 Thanks Bruce your channel is very exciting

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

Thank you again for watching

[@sustainableyorkshire9465]

Oh yes!! Manicaland is absolutely beautiful i went to a boarding school in that region and the pineapples + Bananas 😍

[@quintonn1805]

I absolutely LOOOVE how considerate and respectful you are Bruce for the fact someone is human, regardless of who they are and what they have ❤

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

Aah thanks so much but I believe that's how it's meant to be. Thanks so much for the compliment and for watching

[@anesumadziyire8726]

I love your explanations. I love your choice of routes too. So much countryside to adore. Thank you for your kind stops and the soccer balls.This is such a thoughtful gesture.

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

It’s a pleasure and thank you very much.

[@TheOverlandLegend]

Nice one , you are a great ambassador for Zim. Like all places you need to travel there to really understand what is going on.

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

Thants so true. Thanks so much mate and thank you for watching.

[@raymondchikuku1809]

Thanks Bruce. Mermaids pool is a business opportunity for any Zimbos. The place needs to be revived to its former glory

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

I agree and boy do I wish I had the property and funds to do it

[@sustainableyorkshire9465]

So is Lake Chivero! Absolute Beauty 💜🙏

[@zimzygirl]

I certainly agree with you! A solar water pump for the natural slide if its dry season, the pond/pool - I know it’s at its natural state but even a net in the pond/pool to help filter the landing area of those sliding down (then the rest of the pond/pool can remain at its natural state), grass cleared and a few updates here and there I really do believe it can be revived to its former glory! 🎉 I think I want to visit and see this place for sure and see where to go from there! Thank you Bruce for sharing this video. Keep it up!

[@Goose_JB74]

Love that you don’t travel the normal roads. Ill be adding Zimbabwe to my travels one day as you have shown me so many amazing site to see thanks Bruce

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

It’s a pleasure. Please let me know when you do I would love to hear about it. Thank you for watching and commenting

[@thefuture4456]

That ice--cream bell was just so nostalgic and brought back many memories growing up in Belvedere. I always tell kids about it. The smiles on those kids is just out of this world.

[@sustainableyorkshire9465]

Lool i know right! 👏

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

Thank you. It’s funny how we all miss the little things. Thank you for watching

[@zimbonz]

Bruce, you are correct - Les Brown was the Olympic size pool that we all had inter-school swimming galas at, at the bottom of the Monumotapa Hotel

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

Thank you. Such good memories. Also remember the Christmas lights in the park nearby. Thank you for watching and commenting

[@Eriza1104]

Hi Bruce. Thank you for going back and showing us Mermaids Pool. I too spent happy days sliding down the rock and sailing across the water on the foofy slide I was born in Harare, spent several years in the bush of the Zambezi valley and at the base of Mavuradonha mountain beyond Mount Darwin.I then went to school in Harare. My times at Mermaids pool were in the late 50s. So many good memories. I’m now 82. Wish I could go back. Thanks for reviving those memories.

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

Wow what awesome memories. Thank you for sharing them and thank you for watching

[@BonganiMagadu]

Bruce you are a bigger man than most admitting your fears sir

[@EssEE8813]

My eyes welled up when I saw the footage of Mermaids Pool. What it was then, and what it is now. It brought back some fond memories. Thank you for your authenticity, and telling the story like it is. No ulterior motives. Respect!👊🏽👏🏽

Thank you Bruce for a wonderful trip down memory lane, even though it is many years since I was last there. I can so relate to your fear of heights..... I wouldn't even have set foot on that bridge. Well done for even trying. Keep on Chasing Smiles. 😀

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

Thank you Chantal. It took me a lot of focus to walk there. I spent about 3 hours doing the 30min walk 😂 Thank you for watching and commenting

[@mikereeler9021]

Thanks for sharing Bruce. Was indeed Les Brown Pool situated behind Monomatapa. Mermaids certainly brought back memories, our joll back in the 60’s. Mike

Thank you Lucky. All the best with the travels. Zim has so much to offer Thank you for watching and commenting

[@jackp6397]

Oh Bruce thank you. It’s true as you say in the video. Those of us from zim have fond memories about little things like the icecream sellers, or the old milk and bread deliveries in the mornings. Those were the days.

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

Tell me that bell didnt bring back great memories? :) Thank you for your support Jack

I have a weird fear of heights. I’m not scared with things like that or flying in aircraft and helicopters but on the side of a cliff or in a wobbly bridge I’m terrible. Happy to hear your fiancé enjoyed it. Thank you for watching and commenting

How the new Deffender manages low quality oil in Africa ?

I haven’t had an issues in over 60k kms so not sure if I am just lucky or what

😂😂😂 Hopefully you get inspiration from your wife and daughter's for the zipline next time the adventure leads you that side of the Eastern Highlands of Zimbabwe.

No one can inspire me to do that crazy stuff :) :)

The mermaid pool really looks great and needs some touch up to restore it back in order

What an awesome project it would be. I need to win the lottery so I can do it 😂 Thank you for watching
