Eleven of us just polished off an incredible Thanksgiving feast. Linus was invited to participate but preferred to play independently in the next room. The rest of us feasted on turkey, dressing, two kinds of cranberries, garlic mashed potatoes, gravy, bacon laced brussel sprouts, acorn squash, green beans almondine, several different wines and other libations. We’re now paused for a bit. Some of us are relaxing by the fire, some are doing fun things outside, and a couple are doing a bit of cleanup. Soon we will all reconvene for apple and pumpkin pies topped with real whipped cream.
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.
