Truth to Power

Lets vacation at…Tatooine?

I have never been a “Star Wars” aficionado, to tell you the truth. The closest I ever came to appreciating the movie was singing along to the “Star Wars” ring tone on my colleague’s cell phone.

That is, until I took a trip to the planet Tatooine itself – a real place in the middle of the north African desert, a well-kept secret of Tunisia. </i>

Apparently, Lucas kept the sets intact from Star Wars…and you can stay there, even have a drink in the bar. Nerds, check those frequent flier miles…
