When we made the appointment, we’d forgotten that today was a holiday and that there would be a parade in downtown St Petersburg but Tony agreed to meet with us this morning. It’s always good to have the opportunity to use him as a sounding board for our future plans. It’s also nice to gaze out at the view of the downtown waterfront! Afterwards the two of us noshed on a light lunch at Old Northeast Tavern, an old stomping ground of ours, and had a great shopping experience at The Sundial in downtown.
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.
