Back in 2006 when we sold the big house our kids gave us an album of memories of the house and the first fifteen years of Deck Day. Little did we know then that Deck Day would continue for years and years as a widely anticipated event now in its 26th year, with nearly half of the folks traveling from other states to join us in the camaraderie we love about this gathering of friends and family. It just amazes us every year not only that so many people come and join us for the party but at the number of folks who come early to help with preparations, help during the party, then stay afterwards to assist with cleanup. We are so blessed!
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.
