Mum's flight to Tunis delayed nearly 3 hours but mum didn't find out the flight was delayed until having gone through customs.I got Tony's text message after I'd arrived at the airport so lots of hanging around at the airport.Finally got home at 1 am.
Monday, showed mum around La Marsa including the camel at the Saf Saf cafe.In the evening met Kate,Ted,Sarah,Janet,Laurie,Tom and Dawn for a drink at the Plaza Corniche bar.
Tuesday visited the Souks in the Medina of Tunis and also had tea on the roof top terrace of a hotel in the Medina;good view of the city.
Thursday took a louage taxi to the seaside resort of Hammamet;we didn't stay too long on the beach as it was too hot for mum.
Later we visited the Souks by the fort.Many of the alleyways were decorated with an abundance of sweet smelling flowers.Less claustrophobic than the Souks in Tunis but the same hassle from the sellars insisting/inviting you to look around their shops.There are always lots of nice things to buy but the constant 'Take a look.Just a minute.' is very wearying.
