weekend trip

Yesterday, I had a small performance in Akko, a beautiful ancient town in the northern part of Israel, about an hour and a half drive from our home.

So we all got up pretty early for a saturday and at 07:00 we were already heading north. we went to the knights hall in akko, where the knights of the past (crusaders) used to roam. there I made a show for workers of a big food chain.

as the guide talked about the old times she mentioned the fact that there were performers to lighten up the hearts of the knight so far from home. and that was me. You can see me and the costume and Lia on the left.

after the first of two shows we had a break of almost three hours during which we went out of the knight halls area to eat Jachnun.
So we spent another beautiful hours bathing in the warm winter sun(not really winter here in Israel, can't remember the last time it rained. I think we had about a week of winter).

After the second performance we got back into the car and headed further up north all the way to Rosh Hanikra, which is a kibbutz next to the border of Lebanon.



Next to the border there are amazing caves the the see has carved into the stone. you descend to the caved in a small steep cable-car. after a couple of hours in the caves we went back up to the car and headed home along with all the other Israelis that went north that day.
