    Was ,für ein trip,
    Also Athen ist nicht kloten..🙈
    Check in war noch easy,
    Doch dann hab ich den dutyfree sack in irgendeinem WC liegen lassen,dann warten zum einsteigen,dan warten im Flugzeug und dann
    1 1/4 std später durften wir uns dann doch noch in die lüfte erheben..
    Hier herrscht Personen ,Velo und verkehrschaos,
    Oder wie man hier sagt ,big balagan...🤭
    Ich hab mir das Taxi in die City gespart, und bin mit dem überfüllten Zug bis in die Mitte,und dann 3 km zu Fuss,hinkend,(weil mein Fuss schmerzt )
    Den die Autos standen in allen Richtungen, da,verstopfte Strassen...
    Und man glaubt es nicht...
    Einbahnstrassen everywhere und 😃bin ich dann doch noch glücklich in meiner box gelandet..
    Da gab es einen beschaulichen fussweg mit veloweg》ein paar eindrücke...    Read more

    Israel Day 8, Part 1

    September 23, 2024 in Israel ⋅ ☀️ 30 °C

    Started out the day with beautiful views around the Dead Sea from my balcony. Then went to Masada a city in a hill. To be honest there was soooo much information at this point it was overload. I guess there is a very long four part movie about Masada so I may have to watch it but I did hear it was quite boring. In any event, gorgeous views, super high up. We had to take scary flying trams to get there. In my video, for perspective, you see birds looking super tiny because we are so far above them. At the top there was a fully dressed Jewish Priest in a room set up to look like back in the times and he was writing Hebrew words for people. In Hebrew books are backwards compared to how we read they read right to left and their books turn pages right to left. The card with the hearts says Jason (right), Jill (left). ❤️❤️Read more

    אשכרה יום שישי

    July 5, 2024 in Israel ⋅ ☀️ 28 °C

    טוב אז ככה, עשיתי כימיה על הבוקר.
    השתגעתי מהחומר ובפעם המי יודע כמה רציתי לפרוש מהתואר.
    ניקיתי תמקלחת אכלתי צהריים פגשתי את יאירי ולא הספקתי להצטרף לאריאנה (הבת של ירון אח של אבא) לארוחת שישי (my bad)
    חזרתי הביתה ואז החלטתי לצאת לסיבוב לבד עצרתי לקנות צ’יפס בננה וחזרתי הביתה לישון.    Read more

    Day 4

    Plötzlich mittendrin im Nahost Konflikt

    October 7, 2023 in Israel ⋅ ☁️ 26 °C

    Von Freitag auf Sonnabend übernachtete ich allein auf einem Zeltplatz im Yarkon Nationalpark. Beim Zeltabbau wurde ich dann von zwei Israelis angesprochen und man erklärte mir, " daß der Konflikt wieder ausgebrochen sei". Mir blieb nichts anderes möglich mich so schnell wie möglich zu meinem geplanten israelischen Gastgeber zu begeben. Für die 28 km auf menschenleeren Autobahnen mit zahlreichen von der Polizei eingerichteten Kontrollpunkten, benötigte ich zwei Stunden. Ich kam sicher an und bin in seiner Wohnung ersteinmal einigermaßen sicher.Read more

    Day 19

    😱 we’ve missed this

    September 14, 2023 in Israel ⋅ 🌙 77 °F

    Today was full full day of catching up with amazing friends. We left the place we’re staying at (the missionary couples home) to go to see some of our friends in Bethel. The one couple we had plans to have lunch with them and catch up. She works in Hebrew sign language translation and the husband works in video for WHQ and is the overseer of translation. It was a nice time catching up for hours!
    Ice cream after finished it off nicely!

    Then we went across the hallway to another couples apt. She works in tech support in IT and the husband is on the branch committee over service dept. We had some beer and popcorn and chatted about them just graduating from Gilead and how it’s helped them in their assignment. After a couple hours here we were told that they organized a beach evening for us. So 50% of the bethel family (family of only 52-55 people) came to the beach to spend time together and to say hi after 4 years! It definitely made us miss service at the branch.

    Volleyball was fun with 25ish people. A few strangers wanted to join as we were laughing so loud and the volleyball looked like a great time. It’s a public beach so there is lots of people walking by and many enjoying the beautiful sunset. Just imagine the promenade in Miami and that amount of people…. We definitely stood out.

    After volleyball we went back to bethel Apts and had another meal and a couple more joined the party.

    We didn’t feel like driving back to Haifa from Tel Aviv (1.5 hours) so the English Circuit overseer (when we were here they were the Hebrew Circuit overseer) offered to put us up for the night. We spent some time with them catching up although we have never really been that close in the past. But, they have a cute cute bunny (yes, the COs here can have animals!).

    Now it’s sleep time. For another day tomorrow spending time with our friends in the center of Israel rather then up north where we used to live. Chat soon

    PS. We’re not posting names and photos of these couples as there could be some complications. But just know. Everyone of these dear brothers and sisters are amazing individuals!    Read more

    Day 2

    Tel Aviv

    August 17, 2023 in Israel ⋅ ☀️ 31 °C

    Dag 2 op onze prachtige reis. Sochtends wakker geworden en rechtstreeks naar ons lekker vegan ontbijtje gegaan (wel gewoon enige gratis optie :-) ). Daarna hadden we het briljante plan in UV 10, 35 graden, de 5 km lange dijk van Tel Aviv af te wandelen. De dijk deed ons veel denken aan Venice beach, zeker omdat we Ninja Warrior hebben kunnen spelen. Na een oververdiend fris pintje, hebben we dan besloten via de vlooienmarkt terug te gaan richting het host- ow foutje, cafe!!! Daar hebben we happy hour meegepikt en wat typisch Israëlitisch spul gegeten (Shadaya nog wa Playa yaya ofzoiets). Savonds besloten een stapje de wereld in te zetten, dat voor een deel van het reisgezelschap eindigde in een nachtelijk tripje in het water en een korte kebab/mosselstop!!

    Day 14

    Drained in Tel Aviv

    October 3, 2019 in Israel ⋅ ⛅ 26 °C

    Tel Aviv portrays a mixture of L.A. and Middle East and thus it's absolutely contrary to the cultural-religious Jerusalem. Since my hostel is located close to the beach, the rooftop terrace allows me an excellent view of the daily life at the boardwalk. Instead of dangling sidelocks people are wearing muscle shirts and patrol along the promenade with their fashion dogs. Even though Tel Aviv is called Hollywood's new sin city, has numerous of scene clubs and is promoted as party capital, just having a drink can already become quite expensive. Nevertheless, six to seven euros for a small beer is no usury due to a 25% taxation of alcohol. Although, I therefore spent most of my time on the dry dock, I reluctantly leave the fine sand beach and the summer-like weather and fly back to Vienna.Read more

    Tel Aviv

    September 27, 2024 in Israel ⋅ ☀️ 30 °C

    Heute lief ich bis Tel Aviv. Gestern übernachte am Strand, mein Rucksack hat gefühlt den ganzen Strand eingepackt, da es ordentlich Windig war. Beim laufen begegnete mir ein Stachelschwein, es lief erst nicht weg, vielleicht stank ich auch wie seinesgleichen.
    Dieser Weg bis Tel aviv war diesmal nicht Steinig wie zuvor, heut war die Schwierigkeit eher das laufen im Sand.
    Um so weiter man in Stadt nähe kommt sind die Stände gefüllter. Hier ist beinahe nichts vom Krieg zu spüren, nur die ab und zu am Stand querenden Militärhubschrauber.    Read more

    Israel Day 7, Part 3

    September 22, 2024 in Israel ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C

    Leaving the Jordan River we went on to the Dead Sea. The views were incredible. I have soooo many pictures that I just picked a few. I was shocked how warm the water was. Very much like a warm bath. I rubbed the salt crystals all over my feet and legs and enjoyed my own lil spa treatment. It’s crazy how much my legs were sticking up out of the water! Don’t mind my back view, just wanted to show the sea. 😜Read more
