Few pics from TunisiaWell we just got back from two weeks holiday in Tunisia. Weather was fantastic, mostly in the 30's. Hotel was very nice, food was quite good (good choice including a choice of about 20 desserts  )We also did a 2 day desert adventure which included visiting El Gem (where Gladiator was filmed), visiting an oasis, and riding on camels  Met a couple of cats, one at El Gem (the white and ginger boy) and the white and tabby female which was the resident at the hotel, she was very friendly and a lot of holiday makers were feeding her and playing with her. Me and the ginger cat at El Gem  Us on the camels (my camel was one of the biggest!! (although it doesn't look at it from this photo) )  View of the pool from the hotel  Hotel cat  The beach was fantastic, white sands and warmish water which you could walk quite a way out and it wasn't very deep.

Super photos Emma! The ginger cat's a bit scrawny (bless him), but the hotel cat looks well fed  The pool land sea look most inviting . . . I do remember going to El Gem also, it's the big Roman ampitheatre isn't it? I think there is a photo of me there too (somewhere around the house  ).I chickened out of the camel rides, they looks SO big and menacing and I'd heard the camel minders make the ones with girls on them run really quickly!! All in all, it looks like a lovely break |

Yola, the ginger cat was a bit thin, he seemed happy enough though. Yes El Gem is the Roman amphitheatre, I thought it would be larger than it was, bearing in mind they use to do Chariot racing in there. We went below and saw where the lion cages were. We were told that the Romans brought all of the stones that the Amphitheatre was made from by elephant, from the shore, by a secret tunnel under the amphitheatre, the elephants would bring the stones in during the morning and would return to the shore at night, and the tunnel was made so the elephants couldn't turnaround and had no choice but to continue. The camels were great Yola, I wasn't keen to start off with but it was very relaxing, and fantastic seeing the sunset on the back of a camel. They are fairly gentle creatures although mine (with my OH's camel tied to it) decided it wanted to make a break for it!!!! lol I was screaming "where are you going now!!!!" and the guide came running after us. |
