Definitely a grumblebum day today, every time we go away I wish the next flight was to somewhere else rather than home, especially knowing the freezing temperatures we were going home to. The flight was pretty non eventful & much more pleasurable than the constant kicking of my seat by a child that i'd had on the way out there. We couldn't have timed it better though as 2 days after landing the airport once again was closed due to the snow.

Onwards through the endless olive groves it...

After a relaxing morning at the hotel we got ready to go to the Friguia Park & Zulu Dinner. It was very clear that coming to Tunisia off peak was the best idea as when we skipped the Seal show in favour of getting to the big cats we realised that more often than not we were the only ones around! Not often you get a zoo to yourselves. The enclosures were very cleverly done which meant no stupid bars or cages in the way. The big cats had walkways over the t...
