A reunion is a wonderful thing. When we learned Amanda would be arriving this afternoon in anticipation of üCamp17 next week, we made a point to be at Winklepleck when she arrived. We met at last year’s gathering when she was a brand new T@Bber and immediately liked this fun loving gal. After getting her T@B situated on the right spot the three of us piled into Eric and headed off to find an adventure or two. Wine tasting at Swiss Heritage Wines and falling in love with the Strawberry Rhubarb wine! Then on to Charm Family Restaurant and incredible Meatloaf. But the best part of the evening was the conversation. Looking forward to sharing more rewarding experiences with Amanda this week and beyond!
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.
