Bye Tunisia

Apr 1
We spent the day hanging around Tunis trying to find ways to spend our remaining money. We visited the zoo (about C$1.25 for the whole family – dirty cheap) and on the patio at the fancy five star hotel – beers were only C$2.50 each - cheap. The government run handicraft store was closed. We had a problem ;-)

We walked past an entire block that was fortified and guarded. The public wasn’t allowed to use the sidewalk. What could that be? A small sign reveled it was the TV station. Of course, when there’s a coup d’state the rival faction always takes over the television station. I have no photo because pics of that sort of place are illegal - even thought it would improve the story here.

You can see my last Tunis (and Tunisia for that matter) pics.

We caught a late flight to Barcelona on AirEuropa. The other passengers were Spanish people returning from holidays in Tunisia. How do I know? They clapped when we landed. We got to the airport hotel at the very un-kid-friendly time of 1:30am!
