My Mum and Dad took me on holiday and this year we went to Tunisia. It was very late when we arrived - but I was up early in the morning to look out of our window. | |
There were lots of young people about my age here - some were older, and there were a few younger too. This is my friend Hannah - she's six, and her sister Emily, who you'll meet later was 9. I was three when this picture was taken. | |
Every night they did a "mini-disco" for the little ones - and I had to join in. I think I was quite a hit with the men who organised it - they certainly made a fuss of me. | |
One day we went in a taxi to Hammamet, a bus from Hammamet to Tunis, and then a train from Tunis to Carthage - here I am at the Tophet with some of the old stones they found. | |
The problem is that the Tophet was an old temple - three thousand years ago, the Carthaginians sacrificed their first born on this stone, and others like it - they chopped them and then burnt them. | |
One evening we went out to a "folk-lore" night, and I got away from Mum and Dad and got onto the stage with four belly dancers - one of them came to our hotel and she remembered me, and got me up onto the stage to dance with her - I want to be a belly dancer when I grow up... | |
This is just after midnight - it's just the first of October, and my friend Emily has helped me to get a song to sing at the Karaoke - they asked me how old I was so I said "Three" but Mum said that it was my birthday - so everyone sung "Happy Birthday" to me. | |
I then got to sing my song - I like "We will rock you" by Queen.
Mud on your face We will, we will rock you We will, we will rock you... | |
And of course, a birthday wouldn't be complete without a cake - I'd already made friends with the Maitre D' and the Restaurant Manageress - but they surprised me with this cake.... |
