I can't believe that it has been TWENTY YEARS!!

Libya, October 2005.

We took a small group tour around the highlights of Libya: Tripoli, Leptis Magna, Sabratha, Cyrene & Apollonia, Tobruk, Benghazi, Ghadames, Germa & Ubari desert.

The archaeology was amazing. A combination of ancient Greek, Roman and Byzantine cities, with minimal excavation and tourism. Desert oases and caravan towns.

In a few years, Gaddafi would be deposed and the country would descend into a civil war that is still going on.
