Just south of Tripoli
along the coast highway, we come to the Moussalayha (or Mousayliha) Castle.
Click Here for a closer view of this "fairytale" castle; Click
Here for more information on the "mystery" of this place. No
time for a close-up visit to this place, as we were soon back on our way towards Tripoli. |

Entering the Tripoli
area, we come to this roundabout and interesting public "sails" sculpture.
This is the entrance to the port area on the headlands called Al-Mina.
Our first adventure will be a boat ride out to the islands & time for
Patrick to get in some swimming & snorkeling. |

The tour boats are rather
large but there are not many tourists (no other English speakers that we
know of) on this Tuesday morning. With a little negotiating, Mustapha, our
guide/driver, arranges this boat for us. Here our "skipper" expertly takes us
out of the harbor. |
