In Jaffa John downloaded an App that allowed us to unlock this Chinese bike and rent it to  ride  the length of the beach.

Hard not to photograph all the gorgeous flowers.

The night before I left for Canada we went to a free jazz concert in front of the museum. We walked from our Airbnb using the google map walking guide which we have finally figured out.  So cool after being lost so many times.

The skyline of Tel Aviv has many interesting buildings. This one where one part of he building looks as though it is falling away from the other is very striking.

 

We are staying in a room in a lovely apartment in Tel Aviv for twice what we paid for an entire apartment in Fethiye. The prices here are like home for food and accommodation. The view from the balcony is akin to Hong Kong.

The old port city of Jaffa was interesting to explore.

The Ilana Goor Museum is a must see here.  She lives in the ancient building constructed in 1742.  The museum contains her work and many of her collected art pieces.

 

 

The building housing the Tel Aviv Museum of Art was so architecturally  pleasing to be in,  I wanted to photograph it from all angles.

John has a little difficulty with contemporary art.

While we were here we also visited an exhibit from the Philadelphia Museum of Art. The Rodin sculptures were magnificent.

Tel Aviv airport.

My first fascinating impression of Tel Aviv is the way the Hebrew language is written.

First corner we see what appears to be military having a break from a training session.

Every citizen once they reach 18 must do two or three years of military service.

John was pleased to find a coffee shop where the wait staff spoke French.

You need to be careful walking here as half of the sidewalks are designated bike lanes.

So many beautiful huge lush trees.

We caught a local bus to Jaffa and walked around the port. Going there and coming back locals on the bus were interested to make sure we got off at the right stop when they heard us ask the bus driver where our stop was.

 

Waiting for me again.
