Our cousins Steve & Nancy host have hosted a 4th of July party for neighbors, friends, and family at their Columbus home for quite a few years. This evening we joined in the fun. It felt so familiar though we’d not been here before. It was such a fabulous melding of so many Cincinnati family gathering on both sides of our family and our own annual gathering at Deck Day. We enjoyed getting to know some of their friends including other small trailer enthusiasts. We really hope we get to do it again. Then on the way back to Buckeye Lake we saw a bit of fireworks at the horizon. Happy Independence Day!
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.
