It’s tradition. Every time we visit Bedford we meet up with friends over a meal and a glass of wine and exchange stories about grandchildren and travels, opinions and political views. It’s always a lively conversation. Tonight we chose Tony’s Pizza on Harwood as our venue. The pizza is great, the atmosphere conducive to conversation, and we can bring our own wine. Tonight the two of us learned that Tony’s Sicilian Squares 16*16 is large enough to feed the two of us for several meals!
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.
