I had been to Lybia when I was just 13 years, ,,, I love this country, It is very very Beautifull country, with Great Beaches.

it's a really a great country . went to tobruk twice . but one thing is very strange, the whole marketplace shuts between 1300 hrs to 1600 hrs. anyways the food is awesome specially the shorba.
