What time will be storytelling at AKL - week after Easter?

[kapica3]

Will be trying to attend "storytelling by the fire pit" at AKL the week following Easter Sunday.

Does anyone remember from last year (or years prior), what time the storytelling would be during that particular week?

In general on the boards sometimes it says 6:30 and sometimes 7:30. I need to know in order to not miss it due to our PS at Boma.

Thanks.

Can only tell you that it was always 6:30 during our recent stay. And you're smart to think about this, because I didn't and we didn't get a chance to fit it in all week. DH really wanted to experience it!

Can you explain briefly what this is?
Thanks

Dismom63,

I'll try to explain what I know.

When I was there last to eat at Boma I was able to see the area where this is held. It is just outside the door of the lobby (if I remember correctly) I think opposite the side that has the pool. It was a little area with rustic looking rocking chairs and rocks? tree stumps? something like that around a fire pit. As I understand it, once a night (I believe) someone comes out to tell the children/adults a folktale type story from Africa. I believe they also pass around a prop of some sort for the children to see. I think it lasts 20 minutes. As you can tell I'm not exactly too clear on what it will be like as I did not yet have the opportunity to experience it. But it sounds like one of the little extras which should be lots of fun before or after dinner if I can time it right.

I tried to copy information I read on another post, but the search function is not working so I was unable to locate it. Should you have the opportunity to use the search when it is working just search for "storytelling fire pit". There was lots of information. Good Luck.
