What better way to celebrate a pleasant summer evening in downtown Bloomington than with incredible ice cream? In the company of our favorite locals we directed our steps in the direction of Hartzell’s Ice Cream a family run business that produces amazing ice cream. We were clued in to consider their Signature Flavors and thus we tried the Chocolate Basil and the Salted Caramel (also got a little taste of the Cinnamon) and walked to the little city park across Dunn Street to sit and savor the deliciousness of both the ice cream and the lingering summer evening.
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.
