Wheelus Photos Part 3

Several of us would occasionally rent bicycles and go downtown. Except for photos, I would have no recollection of when we did or how often.

The Al-Mellaha Highway.  
If I remember correctly, it was 
about 5 or 6 miles to Tripoli. 
This trip, there was at least 3 of us. 
According to Google Maps, it is
not called that anymore. 


From what I have seen and heard, 
they still use these a lot.


Rush hour traffic !



This must be on the way back.  
The road does not curve to the 
left on the way in.



Home grown tomatoes.


Not sure what this is; 
almost looks like a well.


Camel market (and next 3 photos).












I believe this is a junk yard.



Remember ESSO ?



Again, must be on the way back.



This one is going in.



Walkway along the harbor.



The Black Prince's palace.  
I think he was the nephew of 
the King.  
Anybody know any different ?



The 'Old City.'



The only photo I have inside.  
I don't remember if it was 
too creepy or felt funny about 
taking their picture.



A cathedral.


Every 'tourist' town has a buggy 
ride you can take.



I guess this is where they bottled it.



A round-about.



A closer view.



The building where the American 
Embassy was located.



Sidewalk cafe.



The Casino Uaddan.



The King's Palace.



Another view.
