Beautiful, sunny pictures. I see all is not doom and gloom in Israel. I played in the Mediterranean Sea off Spain when I was about the age of the boy in your picture.
Dear Robin, I cannot find your Ruby Tuesday, so I'll enviously place my comment here. Tel Aviv in April looks like a dream. How I would love to plunge in those wonderful blue waves soothing my old, aching limbs. Enjoy of all your heart. From Felisol
I didn't have a Ruby Tuesday this week Felisol, I put up the Holocaust Remembrance Day post instead, and thank you for the heartfelt comment you left there.
Yes, only in Israel!! The gorgeous sun, blue, blue sea and the sand! Spring comes hot and early, eh, Robin! And there is the beautiful little girl, maya, again! So are her eyes blue, green, or what? :)
They're pretty much "or what" - some days they look green, some days blue, my mother claims that they look gold.
Whatever they are, I love them. Growing up I always wanted eyes that changed color, instead of the "doody colored" brown ones that I have (yes, I'm still traumatized from having a second-grade classmate tell me I had doody-colored eyes).
Looks like it was blowing pretty hard there that day. But in that last shot you can almost see an 8-year-old Robin. She's looking in the same direction and with the same inclination as your avatar photo which is what dials it in so well I think.
I grew up going to the Black Sea. Golden sands, cozy beaches, no sharks. Now I live 2 hours away from the Atlantic. I like a beach - doesn't matter where, but the ocean is so big - it looks like the world is split into half water half land and you are about to be swallowed in the crack between them :)
