Sight seeing, Israel (part 1?)
 

So.. i'm on a week off since today, till sunday..
and before i went on this short little vacation we (me and around 20 more a.. army pals we'll call them, the people i work, eat and live with..)
went for a little trip (on the army's time and money of course :wink: )
to haifa (mainly because it just the other side of Israel from our base which is very near the egyptian border, and because there's some nice views up there..) to vist (among other things) to the Bahai Gardens.. as you will see, a place worth visiting, if your ever in Israel :wink: :lol:

sorry for the messy writing.. :wink:

BTW- the pics weren't edited or anything, just downsized a little in quality because the average pic was around 1.5MB.. and i have no idea where to host files that are over 1MB..

just so you'll have an idea where's what.. ;)

well this post is not done yet.. there are almost 80 pics.. i wont upload them all.. but maybe 70 or so ;)
..i have to get going tonight.. so i'll continue this later on tomorrow..

Nice views so far :D

Two suggestions to avoid loosing stuff:

1. register with imageshack so you can retrieve all your url in the "my images" page ;)
2. type your long posts in notepad saving every now and then before posting :D

:wink: thanks TT.. will do that

wow, looks like a very beautiful city. I will be adding it to my list of places to visit when i become rich 8) (Prague is at the top of my list ATM)..speaking of Prague..has anyone heard from ARMAN lately? I just noticed he hasn't made any posts in a month or two

*edit* A little detective work and i found the reason 8) I missed that post he made way back in december saying he won't be back until at least tomorrow :oops:

8)
great view from a nice city!! 8)

Thats very nice....I love seeing other parts of the world :D
I have a day off tomorrow so I think I will finally get out and take some photos of 'my' area :D

That is stunningly beautiful. Thanks for the myriad of pics. 8)

I was wondering that too.

I can't wait to have Erez and Arman back. :x

That looks great, to be honest with you I had a much different view of Israel. Certanly not what I expected...had a stereotypical view that its all blow up, with all the images I see of Tel Aviv on CNN and such :? just like westeners think that eastern europe is a big ghetto with 50 year old cars no heat or lighting......

Some stunning views and some nice pics. I'm waiting for the next upload ;)

You must be thinking of Palestine (Gaza Strip), my ignorant friend. :P

all these lands belonged to the palestinians ....
the hungry jews have stolen it from the palestinians and massacred them!! :cry:
