When you move there are so many aspects to becoming a resident of your new community. One of the big steps is getting a new drivers license and car tag. After much study and not a little angst we presented ourselves to take the NC drivers written test. We passed with flying colors, got out licenses, got NC auto insurance, and a temporary auto tag. Now we still need to get the car inspected and to wait for our permanent tag to arrive in the mail.
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.
