I hope you guys had a nice Christmas! For the first time i celebrated Christmas away from home but with my family. My sister had just booked a journey to Israel for my parents and me, so we had no chance to say no. Haha. First we were two days in Jerusalem. So many different cultures and religions live together in this little country. The old city of Jerusalem is just mind blowing. When you walk through the Armenian, Christian, Jewish, and Muslim Quarters you get so many impressions! and then we went down to the red sea and we also stopped at the dead sea. It is so much fun to swim in there. Must be pretty cool to go there if you cannot swim, cause you just float in the water. From there we headed on to the red sea. Elat, which is the most southerly city of Isreal is right on the border to Jordan and Egypt. It is a very nice place to go snorkling or diving. We just snorkled, but it was pretty cool, we could see so many different kinds of fish. And above the water the landscape is just stone desert, with a few, very beautiful oasis in between. After three days there we went back to Tel Aviv and had a nice Israeli dinner at my sisters friends. Tel Aviv is the more modern city, but there is also the beautiful historic Jaffa port. On our whole trip we saw Kalashnikovs everywere. It doesn´t give a very good feeling, but it seems to be a normal situation for the Israelis. I really enjoyed the trip, the people were all friendly and nice and the food was amazing.
Check out the pics and I wish you a Happy New Year!
Shalom! lisa
