tel-aviv yaffo 4/28/09

10:40 a.m.- Bussed ourselves to train station- to Tel-Aviv "Salvidor" stop to begin our marathon circumnavigation of the 100 year old city of Tel-Aviv and much older sister city of Yaffo. New York on the Mediterranean? Great food- fun beaches with esplanades stretch out...
Late in the afternoon we shop and browse as we transit Neve Tzedek ,the oldest neighborhood of Tel-Aviv and cross over into Yaffo which becomes increasingly Arab, as we progress. Eat fresh caught seafood at Marina ....taxis back to Rabin Square to join huge crowds in front of a stage for folk music, hip/hop/reggae/funk and fireworks. Taxis back to Cental Bus Station and then exhausted, pooped, and spent (literally) we take a sheyrute van back to our apartment in Jerusalem@1a.m. to "pltoze"-(yiddish for fall-apart).
