This morning we made the trek to the Apple Store at Kenwood to seek the counsel of an Apple genius on several questions. As a result of Ray’s helpful assistance we feel more comfortable with our plans to move forward with upgrading to Sierra, transitioning our photos from Aperture to Photos, and taking our entire digital life on the road in the T@B. We are heading home with a LaCie 4TB Rugged RAID external hard drive. So on this gray drizzly afternoon we’ll go back to Gail’s to create a backup then attempt an operating system upgrade on the MacBookAir. Oh yes, and we got a peek at the newest MacBookPro and think it would work well as an eventual member of our constellation of devices!
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.
