However, it was the mosaics in the Sousse Archeological Museum that really impressed us. The museum's collection was so extensive, they had multiple panels on different themes, such as fishing, gladiator fights, food, etc, almost all from Sousse. We became curious about what kind of metropolis Sousse would have been during Roman times. We couldn't find any information. We even stopped at the Museum library. Nothing. There was no information about the physical locations where the mosaics were recovered. There are no known Roman sites, except on our walk to the shared taxi stand, right next to the sidewalk where is the foundation to a Roman house with mosaics, some archeologists were working on. There must be all kinds of artifacts all over this place!
The amazing mosaics at the Sousse Archeological Museum.

We fell in love with Tunisian Fast Food in Sousse. One of our favs was a kafteji sandwich with frites at El Ferdwas.
The beach promenade was nearly deserted when the wind was blowing, but on a nice weekend day, la plage was busy. First, some photos and video of an organized (they had two coaches) group of "aqua walkers".
More photos of the promenade and beach.
