Awakened this morning under some wonderful big oaks in John W Kyle State Park northwest of Oxford MS on the shore of Sardis Lake. We had some trouble locating this campground last evening. Rumor is there is also a COE campground here but we don’t have an idea where it is. No problem because thisbis a great spot at a reasonable rate. From here we’ll head west to cross the Mississippi at Helena and do some explorations as we cross Arkansas.
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.
