    Such fun on the water.
    I keep thinking how Jerusalem would be different if we had a sea.

    How easy it is to observe, from most of your subjects, that you come from a seaside location! Everything has a connection with the sea.

    The red in your photos brings a lot of optimism.

    Off the topic: because I ended my series about India. Have you changed your impressions from the beginning of those posts? Would you ever travel to India? Just courious :)

    That looks like muscle-busting work! The boats also seem wider than shells would be in the USA. Very interesting.
