Yarkon ve Jaffo
The yarkon national park is nice - there is a fortress close to the source of the yarkon river in an area that was already inhabited in the bronce age. But you are done with the visit after 2h max if you don't intend to have a barbecue...

Small Crater II
Last weekend it was sunny again after a long period again. So I visited the small crater again. But this time we made it to the devils gate - amazing, you can actually see the layers of rock forming the crater.
and here is the picture, the guy on the floor just set up...

Noya
Another visitor came to israel - not especially for me, but still nice to have her here. I met her in NY in 2009. The other girl in the pic is one of my collegues now, who i first met in india 2010. The world is small - love it.
Oh and I also brought my new girl to israel. She is replacing Michelle who got robbed and didn't find back to me. Noya is a new model and did very well on her first hike.
hopping rocks or "שָּׁפָן" are close relatives to elephants.

Tze'elim Canyon
We did a long hike in the Tze'elim Canyon just a few km north of masada.
We started quite late - at 930 (instead of 730) and naturally it took us way too long.
So the hike goes up on the right...
... we met a nice 70year old guy from Garmisch who was already climbing down. Up through the roof-top window and we were on the flat above sea level.
It's like a different planet.
On the way back. As I said we started late, nightfall is between 1630 and 1700 here, it is about 3 and we still have a long way to go.
It got dark - we only had one flashlight, and we still had to go down. We took a break to enjoy the second total lunar eclipse this year. Unfortunately my tripod was in the car...
We made it to the car about 2h later - in the dark with only one flashlight and the dark moon - which got brighter with time. We found the way down into the canyon - but without the help of an Israeli waiting at the parking lot with a flashlight finding the car would have been a bit more difficult. Anyway it was fun and small adventure.

Simba
So - bought a little Lion a couple of days ago. Had a good talk with the previous owner, know some of his collegues, price was not ridiculous seemed a nice car and a good deal.
Then the classic, i payed for the car, had all the documents and on the first round the engine striked. Worked like nothing had happened after re-ignition. The peugeot dealer said the car is fine, but wanted to sell me a sensor i don't need anyway.
So yesterday I took "Simba" into the desert to the dead sea - even went on a dirt road, with not too many big stones. He liked it and brought us home again.
Pics from the Hike will follow soon.
