After some seven years of hosting a webpage on .Mac and then on MobileMe, we are taking it down as we are concurrently building this site on Light in the Basement. Our initial reaction to the news that Apple hosting of iWeb built sites would be going away was of frustration and of reluctance to abandon the familiar. But now that we are deeper into the use of WordPress and have built a little knowledge of HTML, we have a new reaction. THIS IS EXCITING STUFF!. We are both enjoying the process of making the move and enjoying so many aspects of our new site and it’s server host. Thanks, Greg, for urging us on to make this transition. We could not have done it without you.
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.




Whoo! Awesome, glad to be part of the transition.
