When we left Land O Lakes and Northwoods Tire we decided to head west to explore a bit of northern Wisconsin and then some of the Mississippi River. We also needed to find a overnight spot with laundry facilities. We ended up at the KOA north of Hayward WI. The property looks as if it was a pulpwood tree farm before being converted into a destination campground and water park. It must be a really busy place in the summer and perhaps also during snowmobile season but it’s quiet right now. And peaceful! It was a fine place to weather an overnight rainstorm.
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.
