Tel-Aviv

We went to Tel-Aviv last weekend, the more modern most populous Israeli city. Big beach area. We stayed in a pretty nice, large hostel.

Here's a view from the ancient port city of Joppa (Jaffa/Jafo). Just up the coast is Tel-Aviv. For thousands of years, Joppa was the primary port for this entire area. The cedars of Lebanon entered this port and Jonah started his famous voyage here, among other happenings.
