Lots of hugs yesterday, an early morning hug from Rebecca, one more visit with Karen’s Dad, more hugs from Lou, and Patti, and we departed Fort Worth just after lunch. We made it as far as Ruston LA where we found a place to fill our bellies and lay our heads for the night. The BBQ was good and the sign amusing but our interpretation of it was more along the lines of “The road is long, but BBQ makes it worth the trip.”
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.
