When the REI in Chapel Hill had only one of TNT comfy sling chairs that we wanted, we ordered a second one to be sent to Greg and Rachel’s house. Ditto for the replacement camera battery charger we ordered from Amazon and the iStick that we ordered through a Kickstarter project. When we were unpacking the said items Rachel did a test of the sling chair and approved. She found it to be not only comfortable but easy to get out of! But we didn’t leave it with her, we loaded it into the truck so it can complete our campsite furnishings!
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.
