tunisia for beer?

So this is a post about our trip to Tunisia - event tho i have only been here for a week, there was a 3 day holiday, so one has to take advantage of these things. So the one guy organised a driver - a guy who was convinced that we would enjoy 90s techno at top volume - think makarena and dr alban. He also introduced us to some arabic techno. My team consisted of two polish people (one convinced he was irish) and one French dude who could speak arabic)

In the small town in tunisia the where we stopped, the streetscape is equally as impressive as tripoli - they have more scooters and small white buildings. There is more english - but the toilets were attrocious. They were a former french colony, so french and arabic is spoken. (below: yummie pastry and local cola - sweet things were all over the show)



reminds me of india, and our driver (schreeching to a halt) "now we stop, you take photo!"


Below: Tunisian beach is a definate revisit - especially in warmer weather.

Below: still fully operational synogogue in Djerba (the island we were on was a jewish community) really well kept.



cover up ladies!

Thats all folks! Great company good fun!
