For three nights we’ve enjoyed Mike and Sharon’s driveway as our campsite complete with power hookup, indoor seating, great conversation, freshly brewed coffee, breakfast each morning, and guided tours of the area. The weather has been dicey. The first evening here we had a tremendous amount of rain and some uncomfortably close lightning. Then for two days the sun hid behind the clouds and we kept umbrellas and raincoats handy. Finally this morning the weather is beautiful and we’ve been able to enjoy their multiple outdoor sitting areas! Besides all the aforementioned advantages to this campsite, this has been an opportunity to get to know this wonderful couple better! Thank you, Sharon and Mike for the gracious hospitality!
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.
