• Tour de Tour

  

  This is probably what happens when a person spray paints on a silo after a long night of drinking. ”No More Blooood Sheep !!” and “Good Morning Pick-Pick from the Sharks.”

   

  

  As you can see in this action shot, a floppy wide brimmed hat is the international license for adventuring

   

  

  At the north, looking over the border from Mt. Bental.

   

  

  Wine tasting at the Yarden Winery

   

  

  Tagging and releasing a migratory bird at the Hula Bird Sanctuary.

   

  

  The gorgeous blues of the city of Tzfat. Historians believe the city is the origin of the joke “Your mom is so Tzfat…”

   

  

  We came across some random musicians in Tzfat who play tiny UFOs.

   

  And they decided to play us some little tunes on tiny UFOs.

   

  

  The Ba’Hai gardens. Basically, the founder of Ba’Hai said “Every religion was correct for its time. But now, we need to combine our faiths. The Messiah is coming soon.” After the founder died, one of his followers immediately raised his hand and said “Hi, Everybody, IT IS ME! I am the messiah!” It does not matter what religion you start, each one has that “I am the Messiah” guy.

   

  

  Probably my favorite photograph from the trip, this is Casey in front of a mirror.

   

  

  Sushi on Ben Yehuda street.

   

  

  Hadas stealing our watermelon.

   

  

  Fixed That For You!

   

  

  A snail during the Great Snail Sidewalk Party of 2011, which happened moments before the Tragic Snail Sidewalk Massacre of 2011.

  Someone: “It is a snail party!”
  Me: *not paying attention* – CRUNCH
  Tsfi: “It is no longer a party.”
   

  

  Pope, Rex Kwon Do WORLD CHAMPION.

   

  

  The view as one exits Yad Vashem, the holocaust memorial.

   

  RELEVANT.

   

  

  Ice cream break!

   

  

  The early morning ascent up Masada. The Romans walked up and found dead Jews. Today you can walk to the top and discover the Romans are now dead too.

   

  

  The sun rises over the dead sea. See the sea while you can, because Israel is destroying it at an astonishingly rapid rate in order to make makeup products and fertilizer. I am serious. That is what they are doing to it.

   

  

  When you see it, you will understand.*

   

  

  Whoever spends time spray painting Lego men around Tel-Aviv is doing a great job and spending his time well.

   

  

  Tal preparing to order two mixed cokes.
   

  

  Jacose chowing down on a dish that is basically “Hey, guy we hired as a cook. What happens if we put everything in one pan and cook it?”

   

  

  Mor and her one true love.

   

  

  Hanging out on the boat Shera calls home. I looked around and sadly none of the boats are named “The C-Word”.

   

  

  If there are floating robots like this in the future, then my dreams will all be fulfilled.

  * = There is nothing special about that photograph. I simply wanted to see how long you would stare at it.

  Note: I took close to a thousand photographs. I applied a bit of triage and posted the ones I found most interesting,
