After a leisurely breakfast at the house with Ben & Lynda we quickly packed up and hitched up our T@B 400 which had been patiently parked in the driveway while we’d ventured off to Boston. Instead of staying to watch the Fourth of July Parade march past the house, we left town and headed west. It’s a busy camping weekend but we’d managed to get two nights in Chenango Valley State Park near Binghamton NY, thanks to the Allstays app and the ReserveAmerica website. With pleasant weather we enjoyed the drive through western Mass and eastern upstate NY, across the Hudson and into the Catskills! Now it’s time to just sit back and enjoy the sounds of nature amid the cacophony of kids playing mixed with the aroma of dozens of campfires! The next few days will be our interlude between the excitement of family visits and the festivities with friends at üCamp.
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.
