Our plans to soak in some natural hot springs this morning were thwarted by a routine temporary closure. Darn! Our muscles are begging for a session in hot waters. However that gave us the opportunity to get an early start into Eugene where we were successful at getting a walk-in site at Richardson County Park on a Ducks Football weekend! We did a set up with attached tent on Site #2 complete with the Coleman cot which will be our guest bed for the next several nights. Then into town for a few errands: routine maintenance on the truck, a car wash, a pharmacy run, a few groceries, and flu shots! Back at the T@B we ate up the ice cream before it could melt, made some decaf, then put together a version of a taco salad without the tortilla. Still have a lot of organization yet to do this evening but for now it’s time to sit, eat, and enjoy the quiet of the campground.
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.
