Many thanks,

. Yes, always great to travel with company and I guess more hassle to kidnap two of us as well
. Looking forward to your Kenya adventure too.

Great TR, DanielW - yet again!
Haha
! Yes, the NZ passport has the advantage of being relatively powerful, but also relatively benign

Amazing report and photos, Daniel as always! Thank you. I always look forward to each of your reports!
Thank you,
757. I've got a couple of interesting destination TR's coming soon.

I'm surprised that even after our (thankgod) ousted stupid president N. Sarkozy who decided to bomb Libya (and whose presidential rallies was funded by the ex-leader of this country) , they still keep the "French Street" name...
For anyone interested in art and "old stones", what a perfect report!
Thanks a ton!
Many thanks,
flying_blue_white_red. Yes, the bombing of Libya by NATO had some short term gains, but the long term instability seems to be a very high price though.

Thanks,
frankmu. Just back from a trip to Baghdad and it was actually probably safer than Tripoli

Cheers,
miuk. Yes, there was recent fighting in Sabratha, about 80k's west of Tripoli, when we were there so parts of the country still seem to be pretty dangerous.

I almost wish and think that you should be travelling with Soft Body Armour but that may present some challenges with the customs and immigration authorities.
Travel safe!!
Many thanks,
worldtraveller73. Yes, a kelvar helmet and jacket may be a good request for my next birthday or christmas present

Thanks
Thanks,
Stefan Sip. I haven't spent much time in both countries, but Libya didn't seem to have the same heavy police presence as Algeria. Better for security I guess, but more hassle with taking photo's as a tourist and checkpoints etc.
