This is a different way to deal with the transition from Standard to Daylight Savings. We crossed the Mississippi River this afternoon so we went from the Eastern to the Central Time Zone. We should set our clocks back one hour but since we would be setting our clocks forward an hour tonight, we’ll just skip both exercises and tomorrow morning the clock in the truck and Steve’s watch should be correct again. Meanwhile our phones will keep us accurate in the moment! Had never thought before that this could be a way to avoid the dreaded “spring ahead”!
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.
