I’m making my list. I’m checking it twice. I’m going to find out who’s got a fare at my price. And, I did. I spent most of the day researching and communicating with people in Tunisia about how I could get to Tunis and back out again for under $150. That was my goal and I achieved it. I found a ferry from Palermo, Italy to Tunis, Tunisia for $121 return. Yeah, man! Sweet. It only took me the better part of a day. I could have flown for about $200-$220 round-trip. “But,” I said, “that’s too much.” I was set on doing better or not going. How Cool. So what’s the point of the map? Actually, it’s a map of the Carthaginian Colonies in the 3rd Century BC. Why the map? See the section labeled Carthage? That’s modern day Tunis. Surely you’ve heard of Carthage and the Carthaginians, right? Think about it, they were in control of most of the Mediterranean hundreds of years before Christ and Rome were even in existence. I find that fascinating. They were some serious ancient studs.
