We began the day in Bluffton, Indiana, just south of Fort Wayne. We set a course for the closest KOA to Lima, Ohio, about one and a half hours away. Not exactly a strenuous day of travel! Although our destination campground is one we’ve stayed at before, the roads we traveled are new territory for us. Between geocaching and genealogy it’s been a full day. We found Woody’s on Yelp and decided to try a local hangout for dinner tonight. Fueled by the food we had the energy to do a little more cache seeking in downtown Wapakoneta including one near the firehouse.
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.
