Goose Island, it’s a LaCrosse County Park that we found on the AllStays Camp & RV app. We gambled that we could arrive without a reservation on this Thursday afternoon in August and get a campsite and it paid off! We got #170, an electric only site right on the water! Went into LaCrosse, Wisconsin for dinner at The Waterfront. We arrived in time for Happy Hour and five dollar hamburgers to go with some great craft brews! Now it’s time to just wander the waterfront and to watch the traffic on the Mississippi River.
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.
Nice photos. I like the idea of watching river traffic.
