Yesterday’s adventure was to hang around the campsite most of the day. All four of us enjoyed the opportunity to relax between naps! In the evening we helped M&S determine that their outside TV works as part of their all systems check. Today we headed north on the Blue Ridge Parkway where the temperatures are moderate under clear blue skies. We’ll be two nights here at the Linville Falls Campground! We’ve outside of cell phone coverage so not only will our blog postings be delayed, Steve will miss those precious Father’s Day calls in exchange for a most salubrious campsite.
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.
