Lots more unpacking. We found the other corner on the far wall. We still suspect that there is a window behind the boxes there in the middle of the wall! The Direct TV installer came and now we have an HD receiver on the back of the roof, not on the deck railing! A bonus is that we now have XM/Sirius radio on the TV for some nice background music throughout the house. This evening we hauled our recyclables and trash to the local recycling center. That was a learning experience! From there we went to Dillsboro, a neighboring community for their annual luminaries Christmas celebration. It was fun to wander the streets and listen to live Christmas music, to duck into various shops, sample some spiced cider, and discover the local chocolates shop.
Dakar, Senegal: A Wolof Village & The Pink Lake
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.
