The party continues. We walked to Glenhaven with a gaggle of friends where rather than join the long line for refreshments, we just grabbed a table and continued visiting until the line diminished. As the evening progressed more folks joined us. Eventually we migrated back across the street and to our site with a gorgeous westerly view of Winklepleck Golf Course and rolling Ohio hills in the background where we continue visiting, telling tales, and building community as the sky turns violet and orange and the sun slips below the horizon.
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.
