We crossed the border from NY and drove north with the Adirondacks and Lake Champlain on our left and the Green Mountains on our right. One of our first adventures in Vermont was to take the T@B-400 over/through a covered bridge thanks to a Maps app offer to route us around rush hour traffic on Highway 7. In Shelburne we settled into our site before making the short trip into South Burlington for dinner with friends Jane, Jean Elizabeth, and Rich. It was a warm welcome from the get go, a reunion with Jane and JE, and a getting to know you with Rich not to mention the delicious dinner followed by homemade pie. Just don’t ask about the Fascinating Facts Game!
I loved having you both in VT and giving me the chance to show
off my beautiful state. Thank you for the bonus history lessons!
My humble abode, as well as Vermont, anxiously awaits your next visit.
Safe travels to you, wherever your journey takes you. You will always be
near and dear to my heart.
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.
