We have personal rules for earning the right to place a state sticker on the map on the side of our T@B. We must visit a place of interest and do something there as well as spend at least one night in the state. Two years ago we drove through northern New Hampshire as we traveled from Vermont to Maine but didn’t stop. This time we took the advice of our friend Joel and stopped for ice cream at Lago’s in Rye, NH. Apparently their ice cream is legendary. People we talked with at the KOA this morning agreed with our plan. Staff members at the NH Welcome Center did too. Everyone recommended the Black Raspberry. We ordered two SMALL Black Raspberry Chip cones. Dessert first! No room for lunch!
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.
