We got the call at ten o’clock sharp. The refrigerator had arrived! And even better, it was intact. We were already in the process of breaking camp. We headed to Country Camping Corner and BJ immediately began the process of change out. Yes! The new fridge has a freezer! It should keep beer and milk ice cold! At two minutes ’til one we were on the road. East on 85, north on 77. Headed north and to cooler weather. At a gas stop we did a little shopping. Beer and ice cream to store in the
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.
Glad it’s settled and you’re enjoying the camper!!
