It was another gloriously beautiful day. Our adventures began right away this morning at the St Mary Visitor’s Center when one of the rangers spotted a pair of elk. It’s rutting season and he was definitely in pursuit of her favors! We drove the eastern half of Going to the Sun Highway. The western half is closed for repairs. We hiked to St Mary Falls and on the Virginia Falls. Then we went up to Logan Pass. There we hiked a mere 1.5 mile trail which wouldn’t have been much except for the 460 foot elevation gain in rarified air. It made our walking lifestyle back in downtown St Petersburg seem downright sedentary! We finished the day with a fine dinner of elk and bison.
I have been enjoying your adventures and journey with you and appreciate the beautiful pictures and comments. Thank you.
You do a fantastic job. I may have to come to N.C. from Clayton to learn how to do it, that is as soon as we can afford to get a MAC.
Love,
Sharon
Incredible photos! Especially the one of you two sitting together with this magnificent backdrop. Thanks for sharing your journey of a lifetime! Blessings & Love, Brende
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.
