Headed out of St Petersburg with the Penske truck. Didn’t like traveling with it on the interstate so just north of Macon we headed east on Georgia 93 to get US 441 north to Jackson County North Carolina and our home for the night, the Comfort Inn in Sylva. The photo shows our traveling companion Boo in his favorite position on the dashboard of the truck. At about the time this pict was taken we were singing, “Me and You and a Dog named Boo”.
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.
