Mobile phone pic :)))
Ok, I did it! I upgraded from my old (ancient), little, plain (can do nothing but make phonecalls) Nokia phone to a nice shiny brand new can-do-so-much smart phone! :)
I feel very uncomfortable taking pics with it, as I still believe that that is what my camera is for - but here goes, my first mobile phone pic!

Laughing dolls
While in Tel Aviv the other day, I saw these dolls displaying underwear... I actually found them to be rather scary!!

Date picking
It's that time of year - the time when the dates are ready to be picked, and the municipality sends trucks and people to pick and sort the dates from the trees around the city (Modiin).

Floods in the mall!
Our local mall (Modiin) was flooded yesterday because of the hard rain! The funny thing is that it onl;y rained for a very short time, but it was HARD!

The last resident of Modiin Tent City
During the summer there were Tent Cities all over the country as part of the demonstration against high housing and living prices. There were hundreds, if not thousands, of tents in the major cities. By the end of the summer most people went home. I thought the tent city in Modiin had been deserted, but today I found ONE tent still standing :) It had moved to a different area (or rather: it had BEEN MOVED)...
And is now on Emek Ayalon (Emek Ohalon ----> Ohel=tent)

School trip to Jerusalem
Last night I joined my children on their yearly school trip to Jerusalem (for Slichot). It was a wonderful evening, with an interesting and fun programme. And I got to slip away once in a while, and take some night shots of the amazing city of Jerusalem :)
WHich way??

My morning in TA
Spent the morning in Tel Aviv trying to get some interesting shots for a project I'm working on - and of course testing my new lens (Nikon 35mm-1.8f) :) Learned a few new things: a) one is not allowed to take pics in a train (I was taking of the view outside), b) one is not allowed to take pics of the diamond exchange buildings.... oh, well ;)

Oslo - after the explosion
When we were in Oslo, we drove past the government building where the explosion was a couple of months ago. Everything was cleaned up, and except for some shattered windows, and some rather dead flowers placed in random places, it was hard to believe what had happened there...

Life after September 1st
September 1st is the day schools reopen after the looooooooong summer holidays here in Israel. And, yes, yesterday was the big day - after 2 months of no routine, travelling, too much ice cream etc, yesterday morning we woke up and got ready for school! I think everyone was happy to go back to school,
not only the parents :)
For us (and many others) it was extra exciting as one of our children started 1st grade (kita Aleph)!
