Trip to El Jem

Today we went to El Jem to see the coliseum. El Jem is about 45 minutes from our hotel so it was an easy drive. I have been to El Jem before with Aunt Jeanne and it was fun to go with my parents too. El Jem is a Roman coliseum but it has been preserved well and is quite beautiful! It was fun climbing up and around it and seeing all the ancient ruins. Oh if these walls could talk...

Then we went to the museum to see a collection of mosaics and ruins. It was magnificent to see how they have preserved all these mosaics. 








It was a fun day spent with mom and dad!
