In Wyoming, the Cincinnati suburb, not the western state, we met up with yet another cousin at the Half Day Cafe to nosh on delicious food. All three of us chose rather traditional breakfasts but with a bit of a twist like the rosemary potatoes and the sage sausage. It was such a great visit that we lingered telling family stories long after the food was gone and the coffee cups emptied. Half Day is a place the two of us would be happy to frequent if we lived here!
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.
