Boy, stories of cultural contact don't get a lot more disarming than this one, do they?
Every place in Tunis was friendly.
A waiter at the Café de Paris on Avenue Habib Bourguiba: "I cannot take any money from you."
Another waiter, at a different café: "You must come back. I need to see you before you go."
A random man on the street who only stopped to say hi: "America and Tunisia." He made two fists and placed them next to each other. "Friends."
Let's not go nuking any Meccas, hmm?
