Although we don’t travel with an itinerary or a specific planned route, we do have a general route in mind. This time Aberdeen was not in the general plan. But then we learned that Paul, a cousin we hadn’t seen in many a year has just moved to this place. A few text messages and a phone call later we’d modified our plan. We’re now in Melgaard City Park. We first parked in a delightfully shady site but our Progressive Industries Electrical Management System informed us that the 30A circuit we plugged into was low voltage. Oops. Conversations with neighbors, a check of the voltage situation on nearby posts, and a decision to move the camper to a site across from our original one. Thank goodness for the PI black box and for a minimal set up. Now to settle in for some quiet time before our guest is expected later this evening.
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.
