Puppy Love in Tunisia

The Roman ruins, the fabulous seafood tagines (dishes) and endless sandy beaches, I'm enjoying absolutely everything about Tunisia. Even better is this new fuzzy friend I nabbed after our journey through the ancient city of Utique.
Utique is the oldest roman ruins that exist in Northern Africa. There are 2 houses that have been excavated along with a Punic necropolis or burial ground, flower garden and warm water natural spring well.
Through a cluster of cypress trees are two Corinthian columns overlooking beautiful marble mosaics and etchings of fish, turtles, shells and eels. A stone sarcophagi dating back BC holds the remains of a 17 year old girl's skeleton completely intact.
Our guide insisted that the sundial was built on a structure that looks like a turtle. Pictures of everything are still pending...
