Well, maybe it’s more whitish than white, but there IS snow on the deck and more coming out of the sky this morning. We are thankful today that we have no need to leave home to travel any mountain roads. We’ve planned a simple non-traditional celebration for just the two of us. Right now we have strains of George Winston playing on the stereo. Later today there will be the aroma of Coq-au-Vin wafting from the kitchen and chilled Reisling gracing our wine glasses as we count our blessings. May you and yours enjoy as Thanksgiving full of love, blessings, and tasty goodies.
Dakar, Senegal: A Wolof Village & The Pink Lake
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.
Just enjoyed homemade Peach Crisp with Vanilla Yogurt, Whipped Cream, and Toasted Pecans. Now enjoying Cinnamon Coffee while sitting in our cozy house and watching the snow continue to fall.
Warmest Thanksgiving wishes!
