... Capitol and Forum and the sprawling layout of this huge city. It is considered the best preserved Roman city in all of North Africa. We spend several hours wandering through the site, then have lunch and begin the drive back to Tunis.

Along the way back we stop briefly at the War Cemetery for English lads who died in the Second World War. Heartbreaking to see their ages, and the ...

... then we leave for our Farewell Dinner at the Dar Bel Haj – another famous restaurant in the medina. It is fantastic to walk the twisting lanes of a medina that is bustling in the daytime and almost totally deserted at night.

The tour is now officially concluded. Two members leave tomorrow while the rest of us make an optional excursion to the Roman site called Dougga. Stay tuned!

... of the Prophet Mohammad), and the Great Mosque which is one of the oldest (and largest) places of prayer in the Islamic world, and the fourth most important pilgrimage destination after Mecca, Medina and Jerusalem. So we missed the noon deadline to enter the courtyard and peer into the Mosque itself, but now the Imam is giving the Friday sermon and the doors are wide open, and even though we cannot take photos we are ...

Our first visit today is to the dramatic ruins of Carthage. We visit the remains of the Punic city, the hilltop museum and cathedral, and the elaborate Roman baths by the sea (in the shadow of the Presidential Palace).

Next stop the Mediterranean-style village of Sidi Bou Said, with its bright white buildings with blue doors and shutters. We visit a house of a famous lawyer which is now a museum, then ...

First Week: After being on a plane for a significant amount of time, I decided that I never want to do it again. Its possible it was the small space, the creepy guy from Tennessee next to me, the awful amount of time, or the fact I had to walk through first class to get to my seat so I could be reminded what part of society I was from that discouraged me from ever wanting to do i again. I was, however, excited to fly into Paris so I could at least see the Eiffel Tower ...

... to that of a Preparation H dispenser obviously have no other utilitarian purpose. But blood oranges are the big discovery. I don't know if I'll ever eat another orange that isn't red, they're that much better, sweet as a beet and almost as red on the inside. Try one; ask for 'sanguinello' if nothing else works. Somebody in Florida is missing the boat with this. What else? They have thirty dinar (from 'denarius', just like denaro and ...

... of the medina. The big difference here was that I had lost the Russians and Germans and gained some room to breathe. The mountains of goods had changed from camel shaped ashtrays to Armani shirts, Rolexes, piles of socks and every sort of cheap Chinese plastic houseware known to man. Something tells me that if Armani is in a North African souk rather than a North American Saks, chances are it's maybe going to fall apart after two washings ...

... find three others of the group inside, and two of those opt to leave shortly after I arrive. I enjoy the steam and a thorough scrubbing by a grizzled man with bad teeth. I return to the room, order room service for lunch, and start writing out the awards. A miscommunication with the room service department sends the order to another tour member's room. He thinks it looks good, and decides to keep it. I keep working ...

... Some may say a little too close. She puts her foot on the brake to allow a group of gaggling geese that have emerged from a bubbling brook to cross the road. I too decide to brake. Or do i. The brakes they do not work. Sly you ******* you weren't joking when at lunchtime you said you have developed a fetish for removing brake pads from students cars. I tell Dan we are gonna crash and he tells me that he is actually ginger and just frequently dyes his ...
