This will be a slightly longer stay than the last two. We’ll be at Winton Woods Site 55 for three nights so set up today included the awning and canopy as well as the associated chairs, tables, and rugs. Once we finished with that and got a quick shower we headed to Milford and a rendezvous with Carol and Joe. Over a simple supper we exchanged stories of kids and grandkids. It was a most pleasant evening. And we came away from it with a couple of treats, some Carol made chocolate chocolate chip cookies and a amazingly cute tiny yellow VW convertible pulling a yellow trimmed silver T@B that they brought home from Germany this Spring!
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.
