Twister in Matmata! by emaehl
We visited Tunisia on our honeymoon, staying with a friend who was working at the Canadian Embassy in Tunis.
When we heard about Matmata we decided we had to drive down and play Twister at the place where they filmed the desert scenes in Star Wars. It was every bit as warped as we had expected.
We also did an overnight camel trek into the Sahara with a horny little bedouin guide who kept trying to molest my wife. It was unimaginable hot and we had to drink water pretty much non-stop.

Matmâta is a small village in southern Tunisia. Some of the local Berber residents live in traditional underground "troglodyte" structures.
