The amount of free beer we got was crazy. I went with €600 in Sheckles and game back with €250
Israel is a fantastic place, unlike any where I've been before. Sun, Sea ,Sand and the hospiatality of the people is to die for. never forget seeing an Israeli riot van with a tricolour! I would personally like to thank all the Israelis for an incredible welcome.
As regards what we see on the television, (guys who didnt travel) don't be fooled. One of the bars beside the hotels, Mike's Place was bombed three years ago. It was HQ for us all weekend. Can you imagine someone walking into a bar full of people strapped with explosives? People suffer injustices in this world, many of us can understand the Palestinian struggle, but remember only sixty years ago 6 million jews were massacred. My eyes have been very much opened. I am not condoning IDF policies in the west bank and Gaza , but you have to see both sides of the coin.
Israeli's are extremely cosmopolitan. In fact Tel Aviv reminds me very much of Barcelona. Gols star is possibly the finest lager i have tasted!
FAO Kobby, great job on the party. i'm sorry not many of us came. But those who did had an absolute Ball! Did you see my freind eddie on the stage for the drinking competition. It was hilarious!
I will certainly go back to Israel and Tel Aviv. Couldn't imagine a better summer holiday! Likhaim (i think thats' how you spell cheers in Hebrew!)
