Our friend Elsie gifted us with some homemade Chocolate Pixies when we were in Ohio. They have sweetened the trip home and the settling into our life here at the house. As we were making dinner this evening, we split the second last cookie. We both nibbled on it before dinner but we both saved the last bite for after we’d finished our chicken and yellow rice. Now there’s just one left. We’ll savor the anticipation for a while then sometime tomorrow we’ll make a celebration of savoring the last cookie. Thank you, Elsie!
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.
