We drove to Canton this afternoon for a visit with Dave and a meal with him and Amy. It was good to get hugs and to get updates on what’s going on in their lives. Then we came back to Atwood Lake Campground and introduced ourselves to some T@G owners camping nearby. Their camper is just a little bigger and a little fancier than the Silver Shadow camper that we had until we got our T@B last year. We spent a pleasant evening with John and Nancy trading camping stories and comparing notes on our similar campers. We’re looking forward to more fun times with them this week!
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.
