There was no coffee but this this place deserves a review anyway.
We had seen a Christmas stall for this place in December but didn’t have time to eat there so this week we went to Castle street to find out if it was as good as it looked.
Month: January 2018
Into the Desert -Troglodytes and Camels
The salt lake of Chott El Jerid is the largest salt pan in the Sahara. Its in the middle of Tunisia close to the Algerian border.
A Mosque and More Ruins
The Grand Mosque in Kairouan is the oldest place of Muslim worship in Africa. It’s the fourth holiest site after Mecca, Medina, and Jerusalem.
If a pilgrim is unable to go to Mecca seven visits to Kairouan are worth one trip to Mecca.
A Tourists Red Train and Ruins
Two separate terrorist attacks in 2015 made Tunisia a no go area for British tourists. But with extra security around tourist sites the government no longer advises not to travel to most of the country. There is so much to see in this North African country, it has everything history, culture, areas of natural beauty, interesting food, and if you go at the right time of year, great weather.
A Surprise Return – Orkney Revisited
When we visited Orkney on a beautiful summers day we knew it was worth another visit. We just didn’t expect it to be so soon.
Canterbury Sculpture Trail – Part Two
Next on the Canterbury sculpture trail is Millers seat by by Tim Norris. It is fittingly made from wood as it replaces the carved trees that commemorated the 1987 hurricane.
Nearer to Home – Canterbury Sculpture Trail
Canterbury City Council has produced a sculpture trail. This is aimed at getting people to see more of the city. So with a large collection of grandchildren in tow we decided to give it a go.
Luxembourg for Christmas
We first planned a weekend in Luxembourg in 1973. Something (I’ve long forgotten what) came up and we never went. So its been a long time on the to do list. Christmas seemed a good opportunity to spend a few days away somewhere reasonably near but as usual it needed to be somewhere we had never been.
So – Luxembourg.
