Tripoli
Fun today in Tripoli, we started by going to the museum which is in the Red Fort at the edge of the old town. with so many Roman cities they had a good collection. Gadaffi's car from the revolutionary days was there with Drusus and Germanicus, neither of whom I can remember seeing giant heads of before. There were excellent mosaics and then we went into the medina. Scattered around amidst more modern buildings were pieces of ancient roman architecture. We finished up at a very pretty mosque.
