Plenty of birds in Tiberias. Heard them from early morning… After breakfast this morning, I headed north for the Hula Valley, to look for birds… 🙂 Started out in The Hula Preservation. Nice and quiet walk and quite a number of birds. After a while a school class caught up with me. They were makingContinue reading “Birdy birdy nam nam”

Going North
Breakfast on the hotel. Not a very large selection, but enough to get started. Checking out, and deposing the suitcases in the lobby. Talking a walk before picking up the car at 12. Time to leave Jerusalem for now. Lehitraot. There was a trainee at the rental company, so it took a while to getContinue reading “Going North”
Old City
Last full day in Jerusalem. The plan is a bit vague as usual, but I plan to walk om the ramparts. Never done that before. Breakfast at the hotel before I re-pack the photo bag. Might be nice with some zooms instead of the primes. Gives me more flexibility. Colder today, about 14C, so putContinue reading “Old City”
Prime time #2
Today was the day to walk around in the old city. Woke up early today. Walked around the triangle a bit before having breakfast at Aroma. I covered many streets in the Old city today. A lot of walking and not so much relaxing. Some images from the day… Map
Up to Jerusalem
Great… To my big surprise I discovered that there was a Marathon going on in Jerusalem. How am I going to get there? Trains stopping at noon. Taxis not getting in? I could relax at the beach and grab a taxi, but it is Shabbat. Will have to check with the concierge. Recommendation is toContinue reading “Up to Jerusalem”
Leaving
Leaving. First vacation this year. Will be good to have some days off. Problems with the KLM app yesterday so I needed help checking in. Great support on their social media channels. Got some comments on the weight of the hand luggage. First time I have had to weigh it. Bad day I guess. MyContinue reading “Leaving”
Walking about
Last day in Singapore. Will be a Long day, since we do not have access to the room after checkout. After breakfast and checkout at 11:30, we walked to the malls, looking for a Nikon F3 body. Found several a few in excellent condition. Finally decided. So now I will have to haul itContinue reading “Walking about”
Working
Figured out that we should work in the afternoon, so we do not wake up the team at home. Spent the morning walking around in the area. After a quick bite for lunch, we left for work, using Uber. Spent 5 hours backing up, shutting down and removing equipment. Then we had to checkContinue reading “Working”
Day off
Having a day off. It is raining today so having a long breakfast. Sitting outside today, which is quite refreshing. Not as humid as the other days. Hope the rain stops soon, though. Started with a trip to the Norwegian Seamen mission. As usually we used Uber to get over to the place. Lost inContinue reading “Day off”
Walking about
Flight wasn’t too bad. Expected worse from a 13 hour flight. Arrived safe and immigration was fast. Took a taxi to the hotel and checked in. Standard room not any special. Walked over to Sim Lim square. Nice to move again after sitting for so long. Lots of electronic shops. Probably should haveContinue reading “Walking about”
