A Quiet 61st Independence Day
If you were anywhere near the beach in Tel Aviv, yesterday's independence day may have seen strange. Compared to last year the beaches were practically deserted. There were some people taking in the early summer sun, but certainly not a busy day by any measure. Apparently everyone was out BBQ-ings... that's the latest Israeli past time during holidays. Well, here are a few photos from the beach:
Taking in the rays... the beaches are still a great place to relax, cool, and work on that famous Israeli summer sun.
A view from the end of Ben Gurion street down to the Tel Aviv marina. From the look of it very few sailors were out on the water.
Vanilla ice cream at one of the beach restaurants. If you were after a burger or a cold drink there were plenty of open tables. Early summer vacationers are starting to show up. You can certainly start to hear the English, French and other languages among the beach goers.
