Haithem picked us up at 10am and we headed into Tunis to visit the ancient ruins of Cathage. This pix show the approach to Cathage with an old catholic church in the distance, some old ruins and an old amphitheatre from the period of Roma occupation where they now have famous artists from around the world performing. Also a museum promoting the peaceful acceptance of all religions and the questioning of fanaticism across religions, by various artists from different Arabic countries. The one with all the swords represents the different versions of Islam fighting one another.
The Tunisians genuinely want their fledgling democracy to succeed.
