Sometimes you just have to clean out the closets and get rid of some things. It’s time to weed out all the shoe care products that we’ve collected in a Roots shoe box. At one time the two of us and Gary all wore Roots, a negative heel shoe that was extremely comfortable and rather funky looking. Roots no longer makes shoes so perhaps the box is now a collector’s item but it went the way of all good things.
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.
Today’s safari adventure transported us out into the Dorob National Park to have up close encounters with little creatures that are well adapted to the extreme heat and lack of water in the Namib Desert.
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.
