At the bottom of the Things To Do List that we’ve been operating off of this week has been to plant elfin thyme between the flagstones of our front walk. Any more house projects that we want to do will have to wait. Now it’s time to hit the road. Adventures, here we come! We’ve hitched our gypsy wagon to Eric the Red and hit the road. South and west. Thinking Mobile then New Orleans in the next week. Don’t know yet where we’ll sleep tonight, perhaps the Appalachian foothills in northern Georgia, but only time will tell!
Have a marvelous, exciting, awe inspiring, safe journey. Sights to see both new and old are awaiting your arrival. Looking forward to your pictures. Have fun. Oh, we need a map of your expedition!
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.
