Last week it rained, and then it rained some more.
Today the new members of the 19th session of the Israeli Knesset
eagerly await to be sworn in.
Those people who stayed up all night to watch the Super Bowl live
are suffering from football fatigue and moving slower than usual.
But for most people, after a week of rain and grey clouds,
the big excitement is that sun came out and the sky was bright blue.
Runners were not the only ones out on the streets;
many people were happy to be able to walk outside again.
Even little babies seemed to enjoy the warm temperatures.
I love that a rose in the garden is budding in the middle of winter
and that flowers are blooming in so many small parks.
But I hate that these steps are usually blocked by a parked car.
Free parking is hard to find in Jerusalem, but still, it is real chutzpah
to constantly block access to stairs leading to a public park.
And what would Jerusalem be,
without cats out enjoying the weather too?
It is clouding over again, so better get going before the rain starts.
Yes, we need rain, but people do smile more when the sun is shining.
Awesome Jerusalem. Nice when it rains and nice when it’s sunny. I wish I will visit again. Some day I will come.
When you come try one of our photo walks. See some of the special side streets of Jerusalem, Israel and take your own awesome photos.
Thank you. I so enjoy these photos.
Thank you Carol so glad to hear it!
It’s grey and raining, again, here on Salt Spring Island. Thank you for sending the lovely blue skies of Jerusalem to me via the airwaves…your photos are always so appreciated…
I always enjoy your blog and loved the baby photo!
Only took one shot, one cute baby!
Love the rose bud. And the smiling mom.
Great shots. Roses come up through the snow in Jerusalem. Keep smiling even through the rain and cold.
Hashem surely distrinuted the best to Israel! You so often capture that. Thank-you!
