Got some excellent news from CJ this afternoon. Phil has been offered position as an editor for Author Solutions, a division of Penguin Books in Bloomington, Indiana. CJ plans to tender her resignation tomorrow and by early next month Brandon FL will be in their rear view mirror! Now we’ll have to travel north from Tween Creeks to visit any of our kids!
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.
Whoot, whoot!
Looking forward to having a sister in closer geographical proximity?
