This morning we dismantled our soggy camp at Buckeye Lake, hitched up the T@B and moved on stopping for provisions at the Kroger in Hebron. We traveled some familiar highways until we were northeast of Canton eventually heading into territory we’ve not yet explored. We’re at the Mill Creek Campground on the shores of Berlin Lake outside the small town of Berlin Center more or less between Alliance and Youngstown. We grilled up enough meats for several meals and organized our groceries but have done minimal set up so far preferring instead to sit and read and enjoy the cool of a summer evening in Ohio!
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.
