I had a meeting today in Mishkanot Sha'ananim, the first jewish neighborhood outside the old city. As part of the meeting we had a guided tour through the area and I got a chance to take some pictures.

On a beautiful sunny winter Saturday we all went to stroll on the beach between Hertzelia and Tel Aviv. Few pictures toward sunset.
Roy and I went on a photo session in the wadi outside Mevaseret on a beautiful autumn day.
We had a group retreat in Sde Boker, in the middle of the Negev. Most of the time we spent on scientific talks, but we did get to do a bit of hiking.

On the occasion of a conference in Israel that had my collaborator Ollie as an invited speaker, I went with the speakers to a tour of the old city.

The day after Yael's birthday was a nice sunny day. So we decided to swing by the beach (Hof HaTzuk) before visiting her parents. Roy and me (and also Yael) played a bit with photography.
Due to a work visit I had spent two days in Paris. Of these one and half was in long meetings, but I did get few hours in the morning of the first day to wonder around. I ended up going to the Notre Dame and climbing the towers. Few pictures....
