I'm somewhat still in culture shock, as my third day in the Holy Land continues. I went to two markets today, and of course forgot my camera. I loved the market in Yaffo-- it was filled with funny things, beautiful clothes and furniture, and everything was so...middle-eastern. I loved it. We walked down this street that had about 15 refrigerators for sale, and next to them this old Arab man was sleeping on a leather couch. Men were loading furniture onto trucks that were covered with oriental rugs and yelling at eachother in hebrew: "Do it soft, what are you, an animal??" And of course, in the midst of all this jewlery, there was a rack of porn videos in Hebrew and in English. My favorite cover said: She will make all the sexual you have fantasies come true. The translation cracked me up.
Anyway, then Dan bought his hookah at a hookah store. He got a 4 foot hookah with 3 hoses, coals and nargila for the equivalent of about $45. Yeah, take that over-priced hookahs in the US! I'm not ready to buy mine yet, but you know me, a hookah store? Please, the day could not have been better.
Anyway, we finished it off with a few-mile walk home along the Mediterranean Sea in the scorching heat, carrying the 4 foot hookah. Then we went to the mall and had huge sandwiches. And then we came back here to chill before the reggae party on the beach tonight. Yeah, this was all one day.
