It’s a primitive site in the Lost Bridge West State Recreation Area at Salamonie Lake near Andrews IN. Last night we had full hookups at a KOA. Tonight our fanciest amenity is running water at the community spigot! There are more developed campgrounds in the park but we chose this so that we can refine our dry camping skills rather than wait until we are in a truly remote campsite to discover we lack a critical piece of equipment or bit of know how. Besides that we are blessed with being the sole occupants of the campground and the opportunity to sit together under the apple tree!
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.
