A Few More Pictures of Nature


Actually we saw a fox and a jackal as well :-)

A bird

A bird with one wing

A baby turtle crossing the path

A crow

Ei ole sookail. On rosmariin.
Rosemary

Oak acorns
Midagi kastanimuna ja tammetõru vahepealset

A sand tree

Yellow flowers

 Semi-natural

The desert panorama, instead of a picture

Even man made ugly things can be rather picturesque. It is like everything in life - what angle to see things from; and whether one is able to notice beauty all around

Power-full sunset

Power-full-moon

The Holy City


Jerusalem is an amazing place. Like every site in Israel :-)

The most sacred city

The most sacred church

The city wall

The Wailing Wall

Guess what is the material presented here?
a) papyrus
b) leather
c) textile
d) stone

The Church of the Holy Sepulchre - enjoy the Passion of the Christ

Jesus was really passionate

The right answer: a wall decorated with stone mosaic


The Garden of Gethsemane - Judas was really passionate as well

Solomon's temple - King Solomon was really passionate as well

Al-Aqca Mosque - Prophet Muhammad was really passionate as well

The Jewish cemetery

A typical Jewish tomb


What is really appealing about Jerusalem is that the streets are multi-stored. The roofs are streets and yards as well.

Garden of Eden


There is a real Garden of Eden in Israel

The combined beauty of creation - the God's, nature's and man's 

The unity of God
The unity of religion
The unity of humanity
The unity of diversity

The tempel

Guess what religion it is?

The Bahai Faith

A bit surprised? Never heard before?

Don't worry there are so many beautiful things about the Middle East you do not know. Let it go... 

The Hanging Gardens of Babylon

The Hanging Gardens of Haifa - Bahai Gardens 

The hanging swing of a playground

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder

Coming out of the trip

Masada at the Dead Sea


Masada

 Nagu arvata võib, meie ei võtnud kondlit, vaid läksime jala üles, sest:
1) esiteks, me oleme tüüpilised Eestlased ja ei maksa asjade eest, mida meil pole otseselt vaja; 
2) teiseks, me arvasime, et jalutada on isegi toredam (polnd viga :-) );
3) kolmandaks, me ei uskunud, et see jalutuskäik nii kaua kestab

A true Estonian is like a Jew - counts money. So, of course we did not take the gondola:
1) Firstly, we are typical Estonians and won't pay for things we do not need
2) We thought walking is even better (was not bad)
3) We did not imagine the hike would take that much time

 Leia pildilt kaks roomlaste laagrit
Find two roman camps in the picture

 Muistsete juutide ujula
An ancient swimming pool

Surnumere elutu kallas ja sinavad vood
The dead shores of the Dead Sea



Surnumeri
The Dead Sea

 Haista paska! 
Sellepärast Ats kannabki näo ees puhvi, surnud kuuma käes ikka haisevad
The Dead stinks

 Paradiislikult ilus, aga põrgulehk - väävlihais käib üle pea
Looks like Paradise but smells like in Hell, the sulfur aroma all around

 All vasakul on kuumaveeallikas, kus oli hea istuda, nagu vannis
In the left bottom corner there is a hot spring

 Inimene harjub kõigega, enam ei ole näo ees puhvi. Kuigi nägu on ikkagi küllaltki krimpsus
Ühe sõnaga, Ardi saaks põrgus hakkama :D

A man gets used to everything. Though the face is still like a dried apple, no scarf is covering the nose anymore. So, Ardi would get along in Hell

Alligaatoritele meeldib ulpida 
An inside joke!

But in reality, more like an onside joke as it was not possible to really stay in this water, it was more like siting on it.

Kõrberännak


Negev Desert

Vaade orule, mida kutsutakse välimuse tõttu kraatriks
This thing called crater is actually not crater but a strange geological formation

Oru põhi
The crater

Rändtirts hüppab kraatris
The locust jumping

Kraater päikseloojangu värvides
Sunset in the cater

Kanjon kõrbes
Not the crater anymore but now a canyon

Jälle kuristiku äärel - ohtlik maa

Over the steep
very deep
near the edge
stands Ats


Serpent...ine
No serpents here

Läks viltu
Got awry

Otsime vett
Looking for water

Oaas kaljulõhes
Oasis 

Maa on jälle lilli täis.
Mil ükskord mõistad sa?
Kevad on lillede aeg...

The scarce flowers of the desert

Otsin ujutavat vett
Looking for some swimable water



Punane meri
Red Sea

Minu pettumus oli suur, sest Punane meri ei olnudki punane
Red Sea is no red! What a disappointment :-D

Saaremaa juured löövad välja - kisub merde
Yellow submarine

Ats on rohkem emasse - kuivamaarott

Ardi was not sure
if to leave the shore

It is amazing this English language - the very one word has a hundred meaning,
additionally there are plenty of those of different spelling but the very same pronunciation
