Last night well after dinner the hankering started. We were both wanting something, a bit of a comfort food kind of something, and realized it was Pie! We had no pie and it wasn’t reasonable to be heading out in the dark on unfamiliar roads in search of pie so we promised one another to get pie as soon as possible. That possibility happened at the Big Apple Diner just south of the NY-VT border on US-4. Luscious Homemade Cherry Pie topped with rich Vanilla Ice Cream. If your hankering is for a different kind of pie, this place is certain to offer what you are looking for, there’s about a dozen varieties on the menu!
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.
Happy “Pi” day early!
That’s just fun! Now I’m getting a hankering for pie! Almost time for pumpkin…
