We’ve scored a national park campsite with shade and electricity near a well-appointed shower house at the Senior Pass rate! It’s the Wilderness Road Campground near Ewing, Virginia. It’s at Cumberland Gap National Historic Park where the states of Kentucky, Tennessee, and Virginia meet. Our site is B-15 and it looks like it will be shaded in the morning as well as the afternoon. We’re here at least one night, maybe two. Next is lunch and a nap before we head out for adventures. We might visit the Lincoln Museum or The Cumberland Gap Visitors Center or take a hike! In any case we’re beginning to enjoy a slower pace!
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.
