On my way home

Well I am sat in TelAviv Airport on my way home. Everyone has been lovely, including everyone in the airport. I got a free "scotch" from the duty free man and loads of people being really kind.

I have had a fantastic time here in Israel. It has been a fantastic week and I have enjoyed myself immensely!!

So a 4 hour flight to Amsterdam and then a hop, skip and a jump from Amsterdam to Glasgow. I don't think I am dressed for the occassion. It is so warm here in Israel and Glasgow is likely to be freezing!!

Im coming back!!

The Sea of Gallilee

Today we went to the Sea of Galillee and had lunch at the kibbutz that Jody first lived in when she came her 35 years ago. It is just by the Golan Heights. Jody told me how much the kibbutz had changed over the years, how it has become more commercial. She also explained about the conflicts that have happened in this area. There is still evidence of the conflict in the gun posts and fortifications. Interesting stuff!!

Sunset in Haifa

And to round of the day, we went to the beach to met Jim and Lisa (and kids) and share a couple of drinks. Too dark to take any photos, but I caught this one just before the sun went down. The picture does not do it justice. The sea was a deep blue and the reds in the sky were just breath taking!!
