During the Heritage Village WWII event yesterday we reconnected with Alicia Addeo, now the historian on staff with Heritage Village. She had served as an advisor to Dave when he was doing the reconstruction of the battery storage building at Ft DeSoto for his Boy Scout Eagle project. While we were talking they held a drawing for a ride in a Red Baron biplane. Since she had multiple reasons why she did not want to fly in the biplane, she gave the certificate to Steve. His was one of three biplanes that flew out of Clearwater Airpark on Sunday morning. His plane did only one loop de loop, enough excitement for him. But he got some fabulous aerial views of the area.
Dakar, Senegal: A Wolof Village & The Pink Lake
Queen Mary 2’s arrival in the Port of Dakar, Senegal was heralded in the local press and greeted with ceremony. Our own excursion took us on a coach journey through the streets of the capital city to visit a Wolof village and the shore of Lake Retba, the salty lake famed for an intense pink color.
