Frankie Manning and his son Chaz Young taught various dance lessons today at the Pinellas Park Auditorium. Frankie started out with the very basics of Lindy Hop. Today’s lesson may very well be the most valuable of all the Lindy lessons that we have taken over the last several years! Then this evening we saw and talked to him again at the Saturday Night Mostly Swing Dance at the Largo Community Center.
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.
