Christmas festivities started Friday afternoon when Gary arrived and continued Christmas Eve with the arrival of CJ and Phil in the morning and of Peter, Rachel, and Greg in the evening. We all spent Christmas leisurely enjoying one another, delighting one another with gifts and working together to prepare a delicious feast.

Merry Christmas. It’s great to catch up with the Tholes! We enjoyed a beautiful Christmas Eve dinner with Mo and hubby and assorted family members and friends.
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.

Love to all. Sue McGough Michael and Bob Michael.
