Stop number one on our Summer Ramble is lunch with Sharon & Paul at Fat Buddies in Waynesville NC. We four became friends in the early 1980’s and our older children were playmates. In the early 1990’s we were neighbors and our younger children were best buddies. As our lives got busier and distances greater we saw less of each other but the friendships endure. Now they have a summer home not far from Tween Creeks. The irony is that our schedules are opposite so we have to treasure the few opportunities we have to visit. Inspired by our T@B-CS, they recently have been looking at the nüCamp line of teardrop trailers and after lunch toured our new 400. With the tow vehicle they recently purchased and the kinds of travel they are considering, a T@G might be their ticket to adventure!
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.
