It’s truly Michael and Cathy’s new house. It’s inviting and comfortable. But somehow it seems that the Florida Room is Mike’s Place. It’s the music room and it’s not unusual for us to hear the sounds of music wafting from that room as we approach the house. Tonight when we arrived after spending the day with Gary sorting though books at his house we saw the new addition. A neon sign sporting a palm tree and “BUD” shining out through the windows. Michael had thought of family members that would like to have that sign in their own places including our Dad who is known as Bud but now has decided that it looks great in the music room, Mike’s Place!
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.
