We’ve spent the last week in St Petersburg visiting with family and a few friends but mostly keeping a low profile. Vivian’s driveway was our home and we helped her with a couple of projects. It’s been good hanging out here without an intense social schedule. We’ve had a chance to take a few walks down memory lane, reconnect with some friends of long standing, and to just be there for a friend in need. Now it’s time to move on. In typical fashion, we don’t yet know where we will sleep tonight but we’re ready for adventure!
Dakar, Senegal: A Wolof Village & The Pink Lake
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.
