Artist Colony, P.O.Box 1011 Safed, Galilee, Israel, 13110, 972-4-699-4666-
... north from the beach, on the other side of a fence, there's a little mudpit on the beach where people were slathering themselves from head to toe with the black tar-like gunk welling from it. Following the lead of a couple of locals, all 4 of us gave it a go with slathering ourselves from head to toe -- apparently there's a company that bottles this stuff up and markets it as some anti-aging ...
Masada, Northern District, Israel david_chung... The first entry seemed fine, leading to a large opening where you could look back at the sky. I told myself I could always swim out if it came to it and that managed to keep the claustrophobia at bay. But wait, there's a bridge back in that tunnel and it looks like people on it, let's go see what that is! The tunnel is still tall and wide enough to lure in complacent claustrophobes.<br><br>A quick note about claustrophobia: it's a phobia, which means ...
Rosh Hanikra, Israel hkcigar... not show any skin. All the men wear side locks and black clothing. Same with the kids everything was the same. Once we got to our room that was down 4 flights of stairs. Jewish/American/rainbow gathering hippies/ young philosophers greet us. Interesting mix! Well there names are Zaharyia, Ari, and Mordechei. We get to our room and get ready for dinner. We get falafel and French fries from some street market place ...
Safed, Galilee, Israel grossmanjh... and cabinets. I checked out Vita's place and the lounge room was absolutely gorgeous. Buddha's, fountains, birds, elephants, paintings, plants and funky chairs that you're scared to even look at, let alone allowed to sit in them. The place definitely had a stylish decor. The upstairs wasn't the greatest. She had coloured walls, but it looked more painted than artistic I thought. A bit too much for my eyes. we sat down for breakfast soon after all the ...
Nazareth Illit, Israel karinakr... who works as an outdoor youth leader, named this castle as his favorite place in Israel. The conversation turned to Daniel. Asaf, a disciplined army veteran who'd go out of his way to help someone or have fun, had met Daniel. The Australian asked what he thought of him. Asaf said: "He seems ... confused." The next day, Asaf dropped me off in Tzfat. The Canadian girl would soon fly home to study. The Australian would continue traveling ...
Tzfat, Israel modernoddyseus... why they did not understand the white man's hunger for owning land. Looking at the rolling mountains with little villages situated all below I started to think in the same way. How can this beautiful creation be so controversial? We're all human beings, we're all living and thriving on this same amazing and confusing thing we call earth, so why all the borders and warfare? Obviously reality set in and my fantastical thoughts flew away with the ...
Khiam, Lebanon ashleyheacock... drove around & asked at some of the small hotels, but they either said "no dogs allowed" or they wanted an outrageous amount to allow him. Finally, we found this small, Mom & Pop looking place that we could not even tell if they were open or not. Luckily, "mom" wasn't home because "pop" said "sure, no problem, I love ...
Golan heights, Israel sla514... him that we did not understand what it was trying to relate I think he realized that although it was a great story he did not get the point either. Finally he says it was showing that we should be tolerant of others. As our tour progresses we are amazed at how many of the concepts of Kabbalah we actually agree with. For example, when we think that someone is acting in a totally illogical manner we try to look at the situation from ...
Safed, Galilee, Israel journeyer... footprints. Talk about security. Then we had our first nature hike in Israel (of many, haha). We hiked up Mt Meron, and Michal had a fun time picking up every single piece of trash she could find, which was a lot because a group of elementary school kids was just in front of us. From the top, we could see the city of öôú (Safed / Tzefat / omg it should just be spelled in Hebrew only). It is one of the four holy cities in Israel (along ...
Safed, Israel viaggiatore87... call the driver The Lawyer, Boy #1 who mispronounces Arab and Arabic, Girl that carries her Water Bottle on her Head, and Camera Boy. FYI, the Israelis drive about 100 mph anywhere, cut you off and honk if you don't start moving when the red light is a few seconds away from turning green. So with The Lawyer driving, we had a lot of people honking and swerving around us. It's like the quote from the movie, The Body (yeah, that movie that I have asked about ...
