So I have some time here on the west end of the Med...beachfront hotel, not much to do. Suggestions?
A week in Tel Aviv, wut to do?
- Thread starter JohnE
- Start date
Don't get killed.
Suggestions? The part in italics sounds like heaven to me.
I will take that under advisement. Good input, thanks! Had perch for dinner tonight...not a favorite, dont l=care for the littel bones. BUT, the Jack and coke after, and the mango Stolly/Red Bull/Cranberry juice, combined w/ the goor=d red wine has maned me look past it...
More likely to die on the roads there than get blown up by a terrorist.
Go clubbing (seriously) the night life in tel aviv is off the hook. Things don't even get cracking till midnight-1 or so. It's INSANE. If you want some places to go I can get a hold of some of my Israeli friends for you
If you're looking to do more tourist/ historic stuff, I'm pretty sure cesaria (SP) (it's an ancient ruined roman city) is between tel aviv and hifa (again sp?) I've been there, that was super awesome if you're into that. I would also make a point of getting to the old city of Jerusalem it's only about an hour drive and it's absolutely breathtaking (the whole old city is built in this white stone that basically shines in the light)
The club and restaurant scene on Diezengoff street is a blast. The jettys create some pretty good body surfing.
i heard most israeli chicks are hot and free-spirited. just stay away from the hairy ones.
If JohnE wakes up in the morning hungover with a bad tattoo, it will be the greatest story in Ridemonkey history.
umm that would be most of them
Hmmm........white dude waking up in a 3rd world country hungover with a bad tattoo.......I feel like I've seen this before.
i dunno if i would categorize israel as a third world country. but that's just me.
yeah that would be Gaza
never been there. I'm pretty ignorant so I associate anything in the middle east as a war ravaged 3rd world country.
Go throw some rocks at the local cops..... I hear it's all the rage in those parts.
Who says that hasnt already happened this life?
May be going out with some IDF girls Friday...but I am more of the Irish pub type than a clubber these days. May see Massada this weekend, have you been out that way? And Jerusalem is on the list for sure.
And yeah, the traffic is insane...
Massada, 99% of the tourists take the tram as everyone says the snake path is too hard. Well it probably is for the Supersize it Micky D set. We ran up it in shorts, light weight hikers and tee shirts in about an hour. we were waiting at the top for quite a while until the rest of our group made it through the tram line, just pay your entry fee at the bottom and hit the trail. Hiking/ running up really gives you an appreciation for the place. Running back down was a blast
Plan on hiking up and tramming down. Think I can pop a beer up top?
Try to find something that's offensive to both Jews and Muslims? Maybe have this playing on your iPad on the plane over there?
Been there a few times, what eric said.
Careful, those chicks will break your dick off. I've been to all of 1 club in the US, and hated it, I'm not the clubbing type either, but tel aviv nite life is nuts.
If you can make it out to Masada I definitely would. I've been there once, we hike up at like 4AM and watched the sunrise over the desert, pretty incredible. The fortress is also really cool (I like history) with some incredible views of the desert..
And what eric said about the hike. It's not hard at all.
Consider joining the IDF!
Girls were very cool...trip was interesting. I may be back there in late summer.
Hiked up Masada, 42 minutes up. Took tram down. Was a little freaked out by the tourist stuff at the base. Pissed a guy off who overheard me call it the Jewish Alamo...
