Israel 9,

July 12,

Hi Everyone,

I am sitting on the roof top terrace of my hotel gazing out at the dark blue Med and the clear blue sky. It is 25C, pleasant with a cool breeze. I am alone here after a filling Israeli breakfast. I counted 3 sail boats on the horizon, drifting along in a 5-10 knot breeze.

Last evening I walked around Tel Aviv for 3 hours. I strolled south along Hayarkon that follows the beach taking pictures of the expensive hotels and high rises. I then turned eastward entering the Neve Tsedek area. This area has been well renovated and contains row houses and many high quality shops and restaurants. I then continued through Florentin. This area has not been renovated at all. Purchase a house here, renovate it to perfection and you will do very well financially in 10 to 20 years. Certain streets contain wall to wall cafes and bars filled with 1000s of young people enjoying Saturday evening life in a big city.
