US-20 makes it way across upstate New York through some gorgeous scenery and we’re enjoying poking our way eastward, taking our time and just enjoying the journey. This afternoon we aimed for Cayuga Lake State Park just southeast of Seneca Falls, New York on the shores of the longest of the Finger Lakes. We’ve stayed in this area a couple of time before and always with the notion we’d like to return. Today we had the opportunity to choose our own campsite and were delighted to discover that just around the corner from the main circle in the east campground was Site 7, a lovely little sanctuary. We’ve enjoyed a laid back afternoon and an early evening stroll along the lakeshore and through the Village of Cayuga.
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.
