Today’s adventure has been a trip to Sugarcreek. First stop was Pleasant Valley Trailers. It was a busy first day back after a week of vacation for everyone but we still had a chance to visit several of our friends at the factory and to purchase a few things, a new style battery disconnect, a small quantity of ALDE fluid, and new style clamshell locks. After that we met up with Doug & Mia at the Dutch Valley restaurant for lunch. It was a great reunion with dear friends and a wonderful way to kick off Tearstock 2016 which doesn’t officially begin until tomorrow.
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.
