We decided on Thanksgiving weekend to head out to Tabarka with Mom-Dad and stay at La Cigale for three nights. We left on Thursday morning and arrived at the hotel around Noon. The check-in was amazing since we booked a villa. The receptionist took us straight into the VIP lounge and we had drinks and finger foods while waiting for the room to be ready. Quite relaxing and we waited half hour or so before they took us in a club car to our room. The room was nice with three bedrooms and a sea view on the outdoor terrace. We hung out there for about an hour and then had a late lunch at 3 PM with Oliver and his family. Lunch was burgers, chicken cutlet, and pizza. Then Pop, Aiden, and I went with Oliver to the driving range while Sona and Mom got massages. Afterward, we went back to the VIP lounge for happy hour and just stayed there until 8:15 before heading back to the room. I ordered room service for Aiden which was a club sandwich and dessert and we took it easy until going to bed at 10 PM.
The next day, after breakfast, we went sightseeing in Tabarka and saw the Tabarka Fort, the projections sticking out of the water, and walked around downtown Tabarka checking out the boats and having lunch at a local place. The weather was fantastic and Aiden rode an electric bike and did a lot of walking with us around the city. We got back around 3 and then went to the indoor heated pool to swim for an hour. Finished around 5, got ready, and then went to the VIP room for drinks. We left around 7:20 to make our dinner reservation at La Corail which was pasta and other appetizers. Went back to the room and slept around 10 again.
Since we saw everything, we decided to check out on November 27 and after a nice breakfast, went straight to Cape Angela. The drive out there was adventurous and we took several wrong turns but finally made it around 3 PM. Very windy but we captured the moment and the sign saying this is the northernmost point in Africa. After half hour, we headed back to Tunis and arrived around 4:30. A great trip with many awesome memories and Mom-Dad also had fun!
