After two months of intensive preparation with the assistance of our friend and handyman, Kirk, and under the guidance of our new realtor, Frances, we have put the house on the market today. Our hopes are high that this time we have the house properly staged and priced appropriately. Now the house is beautiful and we are ready to keep it pristine and to leave it whenever we need to so that strangers can walk through and decide if it is their dream home.
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.

With a UNESCO World Heritage Site, two national parks, dozens of museums, and hundreds of tours offered in the Cape Town area there is more than plenty to do. For our two day visit we opted to concentrate on African wildlife visiting the Aquila Private Game Reserve and the Boulders Beach Penguin Colony for a wonderful chance to these fabulous animals in their own habitat.
