Yesterday was another long day behind the wheel. We pulled into this KOA near Savannah and booked one night knowing freezing temperatures are expected tonight so we planned to travel further south. This morning we changed our minds and booked two more nights. We’ll be able to de-winterize tomorrow. In the meantime we’re spending time getting to know the entertainment system, rethinking where we’ve stored things, setting up an outdoor living space, and doing laundry. Next we plan to go shopping for groceries, antifreeze, and a few other things to enhance life in the 400!
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.
