After our early morning walk to the beach, we returned to camp for a nap then an oatmeal breakfast before heading out to find a few geocaches on or way north. After about half a dozen finds in Maryland and then in Delaware, we stumbled on a breakfast restaurant that offered a crab omelet, an Eastern Shore speciality. Who could resist? Neither one of us! The serving was generous enough that we should have shared. Guess what we will have for dinner!
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.
