Went to visit a place called Rosh Hanikra 2 weeks ago. It was very nice of Sivan and Dafna to bring me for a visit. I guess they are scared of me dying from boredom here. It made a big hoohaa too. Back at work the next day, the whole lab was asking me how the trip was? Not just the whole lab, guys in the neighbouring lab and some undergraduates ask me about it too. Seems like a big event man.. The nerdy boring Asian who comes back to lab almost every Saturday suddenly goes on a trip. Unbelievable for them i guess!
Back to the trip, there is a website about the place. The site is quite power ok, for such a small place, they somehow made it sounds like you can spend half a day there. 1 hour is more than enough actually. Unless you want to take in the scenary and just stare at the Mediterranean Sea.
Haifa is somewhere at the horizon of the picture.
You have to take the steepest cable car ride in the world to reach the grottoes. Sounds good, but its a very short ride and its nowhere as thrilling as a roller coaster.
Into the grottoes we go. So what’s a grotto? check wikipedia yourself la, lazy. Some sort of caves made by the power of nature, from the waves of the Mediterannean sea.
After that was lunch at the beach. The whole city is at the beach, since no shopping center is open. Israelis love the beach a lot, they are crazy about it, they go there every weekend it seems. Much more than Singaporeans.. I prefer hiding in MacDonalds. Or maybe its just me. Anyway, they keep telling me to go to the beach as often as possible now, before the jellyfish season wadever this means. Seems like Mr. Jellyfish and family will come visiting soon and then you cant go into the water anymore for a while. No photos of the beach, kinda forgotten after a filling lunch.
But more photos coming up, from my Jerusalem trip last week. Till next time (which probably may be tomorrow)
