E fell in love with the two shekel rides in the mall--it was so cute to watch!
We also REALLY got used to being able to buy kosher snacks and drinks in the malls--I'm missing that here in America!
This coffee was as good as it looks:)
We tried to take a few family shots, but with one uncooperative subject!
One day, we went to Yaffo (Old Jaffa), which is a really cool port town near Tel Aviv. There's a fun artsy district near Jaffa, which hosted this cute coffee shop with the mismatched furniture.
The Old City of Jaffa is beautiful--artsy and quirky and interesting. The history of this area is really cool--everything from Roman ruins to Ottoman architecture, all mixed in together.
Just a brief note on the cats--there are SO MANY CATS in Israel. They generally dig through the trash and aren't that pleasant to interact with, but I couldn't document a visit to Israel without recording them:)
Loved the beautiful little touches in Jaffa:
We also met up with friends and family (and babies!)
And took family shots:
More to come in my next (and final) Israel post!
Do YOU have any questions about Israel? Let me know and I'll try to get to them in my next post!
So strange, different and interesting to see my country through the eyes of a tourist coming to visit.I did not even notice the cats ... It seemed so obvious and understandable.
ReplyDeleteNext week I'm a tourist in your country!
That is too funny, Anat! I'm excited to hear your thoughts about America when you visit! Are you going to be in the New York area?
DeleteThis weekend we will be at NYC. Then we fly to San Francisco and finally to Florida.
DeleteLong trip with a lot of experiences I hope.
E is so cute on that ride! Love seeing the views of Israel. Looking forward to the next installment.
ReplyDeleteAmazing photos. The flower planters are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteGreat pics Keshet. It looks so pretty
ReplyDeleteGreat family pictures! I love to see all of these pictures from your trip. Was it difficult to travel with a toddler?
ReplyDeleteI will be honest that the flight was NOT fun, and neither was the time difference adjustment on the other hand. I think the main reason it worked was that we were there for 2 weeks, so we had plenty of time to adjust ourselves and still enjoy the trip.
