... some of the best restaurants in Haifa. They switched in and out of Hebrew, making fun of Ido for waiting too patiently in lines instead of cutting (&#8220;He&#8217;s not a very good Israeli,&#8221; they pronounced, &#8220;he does love food, but he&#8217;s not loud. And he&#8217;s too nice." "You&#8217;re loud, Willa," Oryan chimed in, "and you love to eat. You&#8217;d make a great Israeli.&#8221;) <br><br>Eventually Oryan walked me to the train station ...

Aehnlich wie Mekka im Islam hat Haifa fu** Baha'i den ...

... the same level as my Hebrew, so we spoke a bit in both languages. Like her sister, my grandmother, Sara loves cooking, and made me a traditional Israeli dinner with home-made falafels and dips. Their daughter Mira (who everyone thinks looks like my mum) came to visit me along with her husband Chaim and three children. I entertained them with the face-warping program on my iPhone, making photos of their father look more like pictures of a monster. <br><br>Last time I visited ...

... already. What was most interesting was to read and learn about how the city of Caesarea once was, as it had basically been one of the most beautiful and modern of the ancient world. Maybe "desirable" is a better word, not sure. Kind of like Las Vegas is viewed today, or even Seekonk if that's your thing. Moreover, the palace was literally along on the sea, and I tried hard to imagine what the city was like all those ...

... whom she called a "femme fatale." A fighting lifestyle had made this pettite Moscovian wise in psychology and emotion. She used her strengths to improve her own situation. The larger blonde was seated next to me at dinner. In a deep-ocean-blue dress and a turquoise sweater that covered her bare shoulders, she gleamed. She helped to get me more of the delicious dinner food. We laughed at the cheesy performers who worked as evening entertainment. And ...

... it painted a picture of Jewish oppression throughout the ages. These people have been a minority in every country they have lived within for two millennia. Their story is one of religious persecution over time in nearly all countries which they were citizens of. An interesting fact that I learned is that nearly 50% of the world Jewry lives in the United States. After leaving Tel Aviv we headed ...

After breakfast in our zimmer, we meet our host, Gaddy. We take care of our registration for our stay at Pivko Village/Kibbutz Cabri and review his suggestions for places to see in these next two days. Gaddy also gives us a brief overview of the kibbutz, which has 45 members and 1,000 residents. I'm not sure how this works but did not ask for details. They are diversified in avocados, bananas, chickens, design and manufacturing of ...

The caves are located on the western slopes of Mt. Carmel, some 20 km. south of Haifa, where Nahal Me'arot (Valley of the Caves) emerges into the Coastal Plain. They were first excavated in the 1920s and 1930s. Then new digs were conducted from the late 1960s onwards, using advanced scientific methods based on modern geological, archeological and palynological (paleontological study of pollen, fossils, etc.) research.<br> Flint tools, animal bones and human burials found in the ...

... have largely confirmed his description of a splendid city in white stone (quarried from nearby hills). Josephus's knowledge that huge stone blocks were piled into the sea to lay the harbour's foundations also proved to be correct. <br> <br> Modern engineering still marvels at the technique which Herod used to build the harbour. It seems certain that Herod brought Roman architects and engineers, whose methods are described in the first book on this subject, by Vetruvius, Herod ...
