We’ve been hanging out in Canton for a week while our replacement camper is being manufactured at a location about forty-five minutes south of here. We’ve made a series of home cooked dinners for Dave and company including a pork chops dinner requested by Riley. We introduced Riley to her grandmother’s sewing machine and gave her some basic sewing machine instruction. We read lots of Shel Silverstein poetry and played iPad games with Peyton. We ventured out with the granddaughters to a Barnes & Noble in Akron. Got in some good visits with Amy and enjoyed weekday breakfasts with Dave. We took some long rambling walks around the neighborhood, visited The First Ladies National Historic Site, found a series of geocaches, and spent many hours enjoying a series of ebooks and cuddling Dave’s cats. Yesterday we were met with the news that our camper may not be ready until early next week but a few minutes ago we learned we can pick it up today! Time to get into gear. finish our packing, and head to Sugarcreek!
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.
