This afternoon we hit the road and made our way to the KOA in Wytheville VA. We find it a good place to land after a day if travel and stop here a few times a year. It felt great to be back in our little home. We took the opportunity to set up our brand new MiFi that we purchased when we signed up for an unlimited data plan. Now we can carry our own wifi hotspot and can now use our AppleTV on the road. It makes viewing our video library cable free and allows us to stream movies and documentaries..
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.
