Our relationship with Mike and Pam dates back to üCamp17 and a joke we participated in when he told her he’d traded in their T@B 320 for our brand new 400. This year when we couldn’t find enough time for visiting with them in Sugarcreek, we proposed stopping by Cambridge, Iowa for a visit. They suggested Fourth of July and offered us a electrical hookup making it a prime moochdocking opportunity. Once we were ensconced in their driveway the two invited us to relax with a fabulous lunch with local brews after which we toured their 400 and we toured theirs. It’s going to be a fun stay!
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.
Well done you guys – both sets
