took a day off and spent 12 hours in a van driving around northeast Libya to the World Heritage Site at Cyrene. Here are a few photos taken there. The last photo is taken in the Forum. Hafid is our driver and he wants to be a statue someday so here he is practicing. It was a very hot day so he only posed for a short time. We had a great day seeing the sights and meeting a few Libyans. We even had lunch in the 'Cave Restaurant' which is in Sahdhat. We visited the Wadi el Kauf bridge which was very impressive and a waterfall near Darnah. The Green Mountains reminded me of home. Theres a lot of interesting places in Libya and I hope to see more of this splendid country in the near future. The weather is starting to feel like summer and for the past week the temps have been in the low 40's C.
