It was our home mailing address for eight sweet years but last week we submitted a permanent change of address to USPS and today turned our keys in to our friendly postmisstress, Vangie. For folks like us who travel extensively, it’s just easier to have a box at a personal mail service. We’ve had a box at Eagle in Sylva for a while now and the staff there are wonderful at forwarding our snail mail to us wherever in the country we happen to be whenever we call. Since we’ve chosen the paperless option whenever possible, there really isn’t much that needs to be sent anyway. It makes so much sense but we both felt a bit nostalgic as we handed over the keys!
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.
