On Saturday we hopped upon a private train with tickets to El Jem, a tourist stop famed for its ruined Roman coliseum. This was no regular trip either, this time we were on a chartered train headed to a concert of the Vienna Opera's Orchestra with opera singers and ballet dancers. The concert was staged IN the coliseum and all this was for just 25 Dinars per person ($25 CND). The train ride took two and a half hours and we arrived just after 8:30 as the sun was falling in the sky. When the thousands of us left the train platform and followed the small parade of musicians and children down the centre street this came in to view.
