It was a day of varied activities. We purchased an ebook on minimalism which prompted a decision to clean out our utility drawer. UPS delivered a package containing our replacement license tag holder and Steve installed that. We headed out to the beach for a while this afternoon and just relaxed for a bit. We stopped at the Ace Hardware in Titusville for some washers and decided it would be a fine place in which to just go poking around. We made a trek to the Camping World in Cocoa and purchased a TV antenna. Don’t expect to use it a lot but expect we’ll appreciate it on occasion. To celebrate National Margarita Day, we had dinner and libations at Old Florida Grill. We capped off the day with a moonlight stroll through the campground and a couple of cool conversations with fellow travelers.
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.
