Today’s journey took us about two hours west on I-80 to the Rock Springs, Wyoming neighborhood. We’re feeling comfortable here at the KOA and are taking some time to catch our breath and enjoy a two night stay. Neighbors Mike & Brenda saw us preparing to add some stickers to our map and came over to give us a thumbs up, swap travel tales, and take a picture of us with our 21st state, Wild Wonderful Wyoming. Our first attraction was the National Trails Visitors Center in Casper. Tonight will be our third night. And tomorrow should bring more adventures.
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.
