Sunny Day and her person, Verna have chosen as their adventure this summer, camp hosting in Indiana’s Yellowwood Forest. We chose an overnight stay here expressly for the purpose of spending time with the two, and it was most delightful to sit, share wine, talk T@B, and to watch various varieties of wildlife. Next time we come this way we plan to check out nearby Nashville IN, noted as one of the 50 Best Small Towns in America especially for it’s artists and the T.C. Steele Historic Site. But for us today, it’s time to move on, it’s but a short drive to Bloomington and an opportunity to spend the Fourth of July weekend with some special people.
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.
