We’ve just spent the last few days on the South Carolina beaches on Hilton Head Island in the company of Phil & Jill. It was a glorious few days that felt a bit like summer even as the days are chilling off at home. We did beach walks, midday mudslides, lighthouse tours, brats, beer tastings, hot tub soaks, afternoon naps, evenings around the fire pits, dancing on the sidewalks, and all sort of fun things. There was enough planned events at the resort to prompt us to think of summer camp but since the beverages weren’t limited to kool aid we dubbed it Summer Camp for Adults. It was a glorious time and we’ve promised to reconvene and have more fun adventures together – SCA-II, SCA-III, etc.
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.
