Thought we were headed to a city park campground in western Indiana but that didn’t happen. Then perhaps the state park near Kankakee but the campgrounds there are closed for renovation. Thankfully we found a KOA along our route. We’re in eastern Illinois tonight with a cornfield to our west, just on the other side of a row of brush so we can peek through at the gorgeous sunset.
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.

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.
